@SimoneAJordan @MelCityofLit Absolutely did! Loved your piece and with the haunting soundtrack it was all so evocative - thank you!

[Alison Moore @alimooreauthor]

Here's a fabulous project via @MelCityofLit - I'm listening to the Emerging Writers' Festival playlist 'Haunt' and reading artists' responses, starting with @SimoneAJordan's piece on Sleep Walk by Santo & Johnny (1959), and honestly I have tingles all over https://t.co/WmNYqiGao6

@DrJoanneDixon @nightjarpress @TheEmmaPress @SerenBooks @meganjstaylor Fabulous, thanks Joanne, I spy some goodies there!

With Moorabool Libraries hosting me, it would be rude not to read Illywhacker by Peter Carey, who was born in Bacchus Marsh in the Shire of Moorabool. The Illywhacker is giving me a tour.

'She stood in the middle of the Bacchus Marsh-Geelong Road enveloped in a shimmer of turps'

I started my @MelCityofLit residency with a virtual tram ride, eavesdropping on Route 59: School Days Past by Sharmini Kumar via the Tramlines podcast https://t.co/pUBq04cUmf featuring stories by local writers inspired by local tram journeys. Thank you @sharminime @broadwavepods!

@Jonzeywriter @MelCityofLit Fabulous - I see you going by and wave to you through the window :)

[David Hindley @drdavehindley]

28 days into the public consultation and - after a bit of a nudge - NCC are finally using their social media accounts to encourage responses.

By coincidence the draft strategy identifies 28 areas as library access points.

Please make your views known. RTs appreciated

Looking forward to this! Tales of the Weird: An Autumnal Festival at the British Library, this Saturday. In-person tickets sold out but online tickets available - I'll be watching you through the ether @ohsinnerman 😶‍🌫️ https://t.co/5Od3fi61rI
