Last year I travelled to Nhill to promote Fly Boy, Big Sky Publishing. I am so happy that my article, based on that visit and the wonderful people I met there, has been published in @themonthly.com.au , a great Australian magazine.

At the book launch of Fly Boy last week, I was asked about the use of supposition and open ended questions when writing about historical figures. This quote from Hannah Kent's Always Home, Always Homesick resonated with me.

This is one of my favourite photos. It's 1937. A fun weekend at the snow. Look at them. They are of their time, but they could be you and I as well. Soon, many of them will be going to war.
Fly Boy, Bigskypublishing, released 29 July.

Fly Boy has landed, at my house at least. My author copies arrived a few days ago and it looks great. Thank you to everyone who helped me reach this point.

Just started Peter Stanley's book: Oboe One, about Australia's WW2 Tarakan campaign.
He writes: Understanding what these men did, and what they felt about it, helps us to understand the Australia which made and was made by these men.
This is a book I want to read.

I'd like to introduce my new book: Fly Boy, Big Sky Publishing.
It's the story of my great uncle Parker 'Joe' Hodge, a RAAF pilot who perished in the early weeks of Australia's war with Japan.
It's a great Australian story. I hope you enjoy it!
