We got our cow. She is happily grazing in my backyard.

CowParade The world’s most famous public art event, is coming to Margaret River in 2010. When painted, she will graze in a park by a river in Augusta, West Australia.

Our cow team is made up of Society of Children’s Book Writer’s and Illustrators who will be painting the cow in my studio over the month of January.

Wendy Binks also wrangled a cow. Together we picked up our cows. Anita Heiss was our official photographer, so for all your photography needs, do not use Anita.

After two days of extensive training at a writersWA workshop and thoughts of giving up only once, my new book trailer for Ned Kelly and the Green Sash is finished. Well actually, the real one was finally commenced and completed on the flight from New York to Tokyo - all that time, everyone asleep, bad food, no internet = Perfect.

The best part of learning this art was the company kept.
With my wonderful peers, we all came away with immaculate trailers.
Please also check out their trailers: Robyn Mundy’s, Meg McKinlay’s, AJ Betts’s, Lara Morgan’s, Amanda Curtin, Chris Nixon’s and Dianne Wolfers.
