On Being a Writer in Australia Theme and Syntax : On Being a Writer in Australia, Frank Moorhouse , single work criticism

'Whatever the state of a literature, Australian or otherwise, there can be none at all without the author. Frank Moorhouse tells of what he and "writer friends" believed when starting out, including views on a local "tradition". He argues for the vital connection of reader and author, and for the meaning and place of authorship more broadly.' (Editor's abstract)

 (p. 6-9)
Celebration : Australian Authors Past and Present : [Colin Thiele], Stephany Steggall , single work column
'Generations of younger Australian readers have grown up reading books by Colin Thiele. One of the most beloved of chidren's authors, Thiele entertained and instructed through a host of books, by turns gentle and challenging, playful and serious. The death in late 2006 of this revered writer for children ... was taken as a great loss in all quarters. His contribution to Australia's literary landscape draws an assessment and appreciation from Stephany Steggall.' (Editor's abstract)

''First you send your heart over the fence. Then you follow it in the best way you can.' That shocked me. I was really beginning to believe in him. Stupidly I said: 'Tell me, do you believe in me?' But all he answered was, 'Alas, I must away.' And he did.'' (Introduction)
