7 May

After checking out the giant pit in Kalgoorlie (yes, it’s big) we headed south to Esperance, leaving unseasonal rain and thunderstorms behind for blue skies and wind. A very warm welcome from Stevie, her family and the locals (including the book club) for a signing and a shortened author talk over wine and cheese. Lots of positive vibes – and feedback from one reader who had had an inpatient stay and ongoing mental health issues and found the book spoke to her – she was going home to re-read it!
