How to Love the World
17 September 2026 | Woodend Library Corner High & Forest Streets, Woodend, Victoria 3442
Can’t wait for this one! I’ll be “in conversation” with award-winning novelist Ilka Tampke, discussing her new book How to Love the World. Compelling page-turner meets insightful, thoughtful and provocative literary fiction. Motherhood. Nature. And the nature of motherhood. Highly recommend.
Well-behaved women rarely make history
Tues 22 September | SMSA Sydney Mechanics School of the Arts 280 Pitt Street, Sydney NSW 2000
Dr Rachel Franks and I will discuss how women in colonial NSW were actively discouraged and prevented from participating in public life – and what they did about it.
“Biographer Michelle Scott Tucker and historian Dr Rachel Franks will give an unfiltered account of the remarkable women who refused to comply – the artists, activists, educators, and entrepreneurs – and the spaces that held them, including the SMSA and Quong Tart’s Tea Rooms. You can expect high wit and heavy truths in a pacy & pointed conversation about the women who stopped waiting for permission and simply got on with changing their world. And ours.”
