The Book that Stole 2011. When I first decided to write the in-depth stories behind the 2011 Toowoomba and Lockyer Valley floods I had no idea what was awaiting me. My own personal journey from beginning to end would provide at least ten near-catastrophes that needed to be overcome, which concluded in a nail-biting last 24 hours trying to get the manuscript to the printer. I invite you to go back to that year while I take you through the highs and lows of being an oral historian.

Wheeled Prison: Australia’s tribute to ServiceMen occurs on Sunday, 25th April. Four years ago FastFiction released its first episode entitled Wheeled Prison and introduced the series Makes YouThink. It recognized not only the heroes, or those that fell, but all those who return from war, forever affected by the experience.
We cannot say “Enjoy”, but instead ask that you “Think.”
Thankyou
