Meet the Author - Peter Goldsworthy

forthcoming events at http://folevents.blogspot.com/

We were privileged to have a visit from Peter Goldsworthy -  in his role as Chairman of the Library Board and well-known author of Maestro, Honk if You're Jesus, Wish, Three Dog Night, Everything I Know (set in Penola) and his latest Gravel.

Ewan Grant of 5SE - MC, Cathryn Harris - Librarian, Peter Goldsworthy and Helen Boomsma - President of Friends of the Library before the event.

Peter's audience in the cafe was spellbound as he talked about being an author and how he finds ideas in real life then takes them to the extremes of his imagination.
His new book of short stories is entitled Gravel because Peter hopes that that the stories will stick in your mind like a piece of gravel in a shoe. He read us one of the stories

and signed copies of his books which were available for sale from Collins Bookstore.

Library staff:
 Ricky, Cameron, Paula, Danny, Peter, Cathryn, Patricia and Sue.
