Latin Lover on Lingua Franca [26.02.2009]
This Saturday (28th February) the Lingua Franca program on ABC Radio National will feature an interview I did recently with Lorna Robinson, the author of 'Ad Nauseam: A Miscellany of Latin Words and Phrases' (pub. Simon and Schuster). She's a passionate advocate of learning Latin as a way of gaining a deeper understanding and love of language, and has been teaching it to all comers in English parks and gardens. The program goes to air at 3:45pm, but will also be available as a podcast after the broadcast.
On the evening of Thursday 12th March I will be hosting a public forum for the City of Stonnington on 'Creativity and Innovation in the Fashion Industry' at the Malvern Town Hall. Guests will include Just Jeans founder Craig Kimberley, Kate Hannaford from Moth Design and fashion industry insider Ko Kellock. The forum will also be available as a podcast after the event.
Keep an eye out for my forthcoming essay on the topic of shyness, which will be published in Meanjin literary journal in the June 2009 edition.
And I have been invited to be a guest speaker at the Byron Bay Writers Festival which will take place from 7th - 9th August this year. Full program details will be available from June 5th.
