Podcast and Appearance

I recently had a good conversation with the gracious Sharon McInnes in preparation for the North Island Writer's Conference. The podcast is called Beyond the Page and I must say that Sharon is a singularly good interviewer. You can have a listen here: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/4jEUL9IUOijpNIKHqnsnLm?si=224d019719b74778 or here:

I will be giving a keynote address on Friday, January 16 from 7:00 - 8:30 at Tyee Hall and teaching a day-long Character Building Bootcamp workshop on Saturday, Jan 17 from 9:00 to 3:00 at North Island College. The talk is free and you can visit the festival website for tickets to the workshop. Friday's talk will be about what it means to be a writer and creator as the AI revolution washes over us all. I have a lot to say on the subject.

There are many fabulous presenters at the festival, including my brilliant cousin, Jess McDiarmid, who will be teaching at workshop on research on Sunday afternoon.
