Red dirt in my veins
Ocean at my feet
Wind in my hair
Stars in my eyes
Stories on my tongue
Basket and fibre-sculpture by Karen Wyld
I’m an author, freelance writer and consultant of Aboriginal descent (Martu).
My self-published novel, When Rosa Came Home, was short-listed for a South Australian People’s Choice Award in 2015. Print copies of When Rosa Came Home are available direct from me online
The draft manuscript for my next book, Where The Fruit Falls, was short-listed in the 2017 Richell Prize. And was selected into the 2018 Hardcopy professional development program for writers, which I was awarded a scholarship to attend.
I will be editing this manuscript during a Writers In Residence in Ceduna (remote town, far west coast South Australia) during late September to October 2018.
I’m currently working on a few projects that I hope to see published one day.
In 2017, I closed my independent bookshop. My online clearance ‘store’ has some great bargains (postage free, Australian customers only)
