  1. Hi Rose
    Finally back listening to the podcasts… Enjoyed this interview and the ideas in the book. Sounds like a fascinating historical novel. Will add it to the list which is becoming unmanageable….just too many good books out there.
    Thanks for adding a new author into the mix.
    cheers

  2. Hi Glenda
    Welcome home. Its getting harder and harder to choose which books to include in the podcast, as there are so many good ones being released by Australian women, I have over 40 (and counting) on my TBR pile.
