Now is your last chance to read LJ Roberts' book review column and movie reviews by Gabriela and Sheryl.

Laurel Lamperd: The Plumbago Hedge
http://laurellamperd.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-plumbago-hedge.html
Saturday, April 13, 2013. Our mother grew a plumbago hedge. The mauve wispy flowers moved in the hot still air. And was always in need of trimming. We want some privacy, our mother said. When the next door neighbour came home drunk. We sat into the late evening. Watching the picture crowd go home. I'd forgotten how hot it was in Northam. We ran a milking cow down the back on our half acre. My brothers took turns in milking. And left bowls of milk on the back of the Metters. Over stewed black plums.

Friday, April 26, 2013. As my Sister Lay Dying. I crochet the rug. She had begun for her youngest son. She rests against the headrest. Her eyes closed as an afternoon soap. Plays its family dramas. I twine the purple wool. And hope my stitches are as neat and firm. The purple yarn is dark and luxurious. For a young man to throw across. The back seat of his car. Three children try to save a creek from the developers. Suitable for children 7-11. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

This page is for anyone interested in self-publishing their own fiction. I don’t consider myself to be much of an expert on this - I feel more like Australopethicus learning to use tools for the first time. But since altruism is supposed to be one of the things that marks out apes from other animals, I thought I'd attempt to summarise what I’ve learnt so far. This page was last updated on 11.8.2016. Most publishers are overwhelmed with submissions, so your chances of getting. Are not good (click. I've pu...

Laurel Lamperd: Chairs
http://laurellamperd.blogspot.com/2013/04/chairs.html
Monday, April 15, 2013. Young Burne-Jones and William Morris. Rented rooms in Red Lion Square. Near their mentor, Rossetti. They wanted to furnish their rooms. In the spirit of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Beechwood Swing Rockers,. Bentwood, Windsor and the Sheraton style. Morris designed tall backed chairs. Made from deal at Tommy Baker's cabinet shop. I imagine Burne-Jones bringing to life. The brave Sir Galahad. The knight who had no equal,. Painting the back of a medieval chair. Of the golden hair.

Laurel Lamperd: March 2013
http://laurellamperd.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 26, 2013. Retreat of the Drought. Retreat of the Drought. Late evening the rain came. It hovered on the horizon. Hidden in the darkness. It marched towards the homestead. Crossed hills and valleys. Coming down with a steady drumming. On the corrugated iron roof. The earth rebelled as pools formed. It let the invader into its womb. Where the seeds of life are stored. Gushed into dry dams. Covered the bones of drought stricken sheep. The farmer lay awake. Saturday, March 23, 2013. Stephanie'...

Wednesday, February 27, 2013. Another one of my Vermeer poems. He displayed his daughters. Their hair drawn back. From delicate ears and neck. The hint of a bosom. Beneath sedate cut bodice. Sturdy Dutch merchants came. Looking for a wife. To grace their house. And fill their bed. The younger sister entertained. Of ruby lips meeting. Detective Matt Allenby finds he is falling in love with one of his murder suspect. A romanctic detective novel set in Western Australia. Print www.feedaread.com. Gordon droo...
