Homeward bound

I'm going home this afternoon. Melbourne. Soul of the South.
Will try to blog from there.
I'm reading at several schools, including my old school, and on 23 July, I'll be at the Chatterbooks Adventure Afternoon. Christine Harris, author of the Spy Girl series, and David Harris, author of the Cliffhangers books, will be there too, for an afternoon of "swashbuckling, espionage and thrill seeking".
Chatterbooks is run by the Eltham Bookshop, and offers "a chance to talk about your favourite books and authors, and let us introduce you to the most exciting and readable books. Don't forget that we also run writing and storytelling workshops and close encounters with acclaimed authors. Especially for 8-13 year olds and their families."
It's from 2 to 3.30pm at Eltham Library, Panther Place, Eltham.
