Next week, things get proper huge. Proper huge for around these parts, anyway.
SCENIC WRITER SHACK’S worst kept secret of 2024 can now be finally revealed.
It’s book launch time, baby!
In T-minus seven days and counting the champagne corks will pop, the streamers will fly and the sonic boom at lift-off will be felt every bit as much as it’ll be heard.
SCENIC WRITER’S SHACK will don it’s finest Perspex safety glasses as it launches it’s published short story collection – fully ten years in the making – with all the fanfare it can muster.
You won’t want to miss it! Until then, here’s a first-time cover reveal…
This week, SCENIC WRITER’S SHACK travelled more than 2000 kilometers to take in the sights of South Australia.
While in Adelaide, spotted in a ‘not-so-ordinary’ ordinary suburban houses’ front yard was this rampantly cuckoo and rare-as-a-blessing-of-unicorns statue I’ve dubbed UPSIDE-DOWN READER.
When you take the SCENIC route, you never know what you might see.
And is it just me or does UPSIDE DOWN READER bear at least a passing resemblance to a literary, silvery version of the long-limbed golden dude from the 1966 episode of LOST IN SPACE titled THE DREAM MONSTER?
Okay, it’s just me.
Construction workers have been cool since as far back as THE VILLAGE PEOPLE. Maybe even before (tee hee!).
Pitched firmly at the Tik Tok generation, this South Australian tv ad currently doing the rounds does precisely what it sets out to do – make being a tradie look like a cool career choice for school leavers.
I so love this ad. Hard hats off to you, city of Ad-elaide!
