This books sponsored in the name of Di:When I first saw this book at Parramatta Library in Sydney I borrowed it and kept on borrowing it. It’s about writers and writing but it’s more than that - sort of distilled and poetic wisdom. I found it so powerful that, [and at the time] I couldn’t buy a copy anywhere [...]. Today is Australia Day and [...] I think that The Writer’s Chapbook is a good choice for Australia Day when we celebrate the multiculturalness of my home and our people from all over the world. The Writer’s Chapbook is wisdom from many people from many nations.
