A special friend has just had a big birthday so we put together a Year of Books for her - 12 books, one to unwrap every month. It was such fun choosing them and putting it all together and she said it was the best present she’d ever had … happy days 🎁🥰 #BookTwitter #booklovers – at South West, England

The entry fee: prize ratio in a lot of writing contests ATM is ridiculous. I get that publications are operating on a shoestring and trying not to go under, but so are writers. $30 entry for a possible $250 win is not reasonable and no one should be paying this! #WritingCommunity

#WritingCommunity #Readers I am looking to find more writers to follow and more followers that are not bikini-clad bioless bots. If you write or read Hist Fiction or Fantasy or are are an Aussie author drop a comment, like or follow and share your favourite novel. #writerslift

Pretty disappointed that The Age/SMH reviews new novels by white men about violence,racism & colonialism but not a new memoir about a black man’s lived experience of violence, racism & colonialism. No shade on the white guys, their books are great: read them. But seriously? 🧵1/2

Mark sat locked to a machine on Taungurung country for 8 hours today. That machine was intended to commit acts of gross destruction upon the priceless native forest and Greater Glider habitat around it. Thanks to this act of resistance no trees were felled, no homes ruined.

Today is publication day! The 1st memoir by a Torres Strait Islander EVER to be traditionally published. Twits, if you can find it in your hearts to spread the love about this book - this important, powerful book - I'd be deeply grateful. #AaronFaAoso michellescotttucker.com/2022…

I really wish people would stop drastically using the scenarios of rape or incest as the sole premise for an abortion. A woman doesn’t have to be in a traumatic situation for it to be reason enough. In fact there is zero explanation that needs to be given.

There are so many fab events featuring these books and their authors in the coming days. Book launches, book clubs, an event discussing the anatomy of romance, a fund raiser featuring Tony Birch, and more! @ReadingsBooks #BallaratLibraries Details at bit.ly/3LZfkrK

First sorry day as a kinship carer so I feel like I know the system more intimately than I previously did. Here’s what I’ve learnt:

Every year I see the Vinny's @CEOSleepout happen and every year I get so angry that these rich comfortable people think they're helping by cosplaying homelessness (not even accurately, in their $450 north face jackets) so I decided today to have a little look at who they are:

My cousin asked a question about the NDIS on #qanda, Albo’s answer was cut off by one of Speers MANY interruptions. After the show, she received a call from @AlboMP himself. Thanking her and answering her NDIS questions. No photo ops or cameras just a great human being. #auspol

Green’s Leader Adam Bandt with the perfect response to this “gotcha” question and a message to all you “journalists” out there that think this a good way to treat this election campaign. #auspol #AusVotes2022 #Elections2022

Worth a read. Let’s use this election to raise the quality of the politics we get theage.com.au/politics/feder…
