Writes4Women host Pamela Cook shares what she's currently reading before handing over to guest host Cassie Hamer who chats with debut author Megan Albany about her debut release The Very Last List of Vivian Walker.

Cassie Hamer is a Sydney based author whose debut novel After the Party was an Australian bestseller. Her second book, The End of Cuthbert Close was published in 2020, and Cassie's third novel, The Truth About Faking It will be in stores in early May. It's about the three Trainer, women - Ellen, Natasha, and Georgie - who have all been excellent at hiding their true feelings until now when Ellen's estranged husband, David is killed in a boating accident in Thailand.

The book is about the fallout from that event, along with other things that are happening in the women's lives, and how the truth comes out. 

Megan Albany loves to bring humour and joy to the creative process and believes everyone has a story to tell. She has spent over 25 years working as a journalist, editor, scriptwriter, songwriter and composer, has written for numerous Aboriginal publications and was the script writer for five years for the Deadlies, the National Indigenous Awards, which screened on SBS.

The Very Last List of Vivian Walker is about Vivian who although dying, still has a huge number of things left to finish on her to-do list. Her unfinished business includes jobs such as cleaning the fridge, uncluttering the toy room while a husband's list is skewed more towards having sex and going for long walks in the countryside.Their eight year old son, Ethan also has a list including playing handball, building a robot and untidy.

Cassie and Megan chat about writing a debut novel, about the soundtrack for the book, about how Megan has used some of her own experiences in the story, and about tackling the difficult topic of death.

So grab a cuppa and join Cassie and Megan on the Writes4Women Convo Couch.
