12 Days of Christmas: Book Recommendations fro Jo Riccioni

Guest host Mary-Lou Stephens chats to fellow historical fiction author Julie Bennet about her second novel, The Lost Letters of Rose Carey. 

A former journalist Julie's novels are inspired by her experiences on stage as a child extra in the newly-opened Sydney Opera House (The Understudy) and now by her research into the life of 1920's movie icon Annette Kellerman. Set in 2024 and 1923 the dual timeline story is a stirring tale of mystery and romance about the 'million dollar mermaid'.

Julie talks about the inspiration for the story and how she turned fact into fiction to create the character of Rose Carey. It's a great conversation between two talented writers of historical fiction.

In the intro Pam reveals all (well, some) about her recent Next Chapter Writing Retreat.

Grab a cuppa, pop on your walking shoes and enjoy the ep.

In this episode host Pamela Cook chats to Karen Viggers about her recent release Sidelines.

The novel centres around a violent brawl  at a suburban junior soccer game. Some onlookers are shocked. But others saw it coming. Rivalry, parental pressure, coaching bias, inequity, and many other factors have played a part in turning Saturday mornings into a pressure cooker. The story is told from multiple points of view and takes us into the competitive world of children's sport.

Karen Viggers is an author, veterinarian and podcaster. She is the author of five novels: The Stranding (2008), The Lightkeeper’s Wife (2011), The Grass Castle (2014), The Orchardist’s Daughter (2019) and Sidelines (2024).

Her work is set in Australian landscapes and communities, and explores contentious issues, such as dying with dignity, displacement of First Peoples, wildlife conservation, clear-felling of native forests, and now, modern parenting and junior sport.

She is co-host of the Secrets From the Green Room podcast in which she interviews writers and other book industry colleagues about books and writing.

Her novels have been translated into several languages and have enjoyed great success in France where she is a bestselling author and has won a literary award.

Karen lives on Ngunnawal and Ngambri land in Canberra with her ecologist husband.

Grab a cuppa or pop on your walking shoes and enjoy this chat with Karen about the book, creating interesting characters, writing about the things that burn inside of you, writing from multiple viewpoints, and a whole lot more!
