Sometimes I Feel Like I'm In Barcelona...

-
Or rather, sometimes I dream I am in Perth, and I wake up in Barcelona... surreal!



The architecture here is amazing, from Gaudi to Gothic.





I'm always up early so I get to see the sun rise...



and set!




And in between there is a lot of opportunity for taking amateur photographs!

But not a lot of time to write :(

    I see you're making good use of the new camera :) I'm still sighing over the fact you've seen that Gaudi building with your own eyes and not through a photo frame :)

Introducing The Distance Between Dreams

 My book has a cover (!) and is now available to pre-order from your favourite local bookstore. You can also sign up on the Fremantle Press website to be notified when it is available to purchase.  Sarah Willis longs to free herself from the expectations of a privileged upbringing, while Winston Keller can’t afford the luxury of a dream.

  I made this image earlier in 2025, when I was writing on my Instagram account about the importance of pre-ordering books. The list of books that I am excited about is an ever-growing, living document, and I am always on the lookout for things to add to it.  You'll notice something about the authors included in this image too: they are all Australian writers, and a lot of them are from Western Australia, where I live.  One thing I was taught when I did my professional writing and publishing graduate diploma that will always stick with me is that the Australian book market is vastly oversupplied.

Well, it's not as simple as there being lots of aspiring writers out there who don't read books (good luck to them, I say), but rather that when faced with a choice of which books yo...
