Twilight Author Series - Arabella Forge

Arabella Forge was our second last speaker for this years Twilight Author Series and the discussion she created around self suficiency in all its forms was well accepted by the audience. We had many of the audience asking questions and acknowledging Arabella's knowledge in the area of nutrition and sustainable living. She says about her book "Frugavore"......"I started writing this book after I found myself trying to juggle two seemingly opposing things; I wanted to provide good, nutritious food for myself and my family, while also watching my dollars when I went to the supermarket."

Twilight Author Series - Liz Rushen

Last Friday evening, even though it was freezing outside, we were all sitting in the cosy comfort of the Stockyard Gallery listening enthralled to Liz Rushen. Liz has a passion for the history of the women who made their way to Australia in the early and mid 1800s with little or no support from family, and some of them didn't have family. Liz shares her knowledge on this subject with grace and eloquence. We had a good time!

Twilight Author Series - Patrick Morgan

Another successful evening last Friday with Patrick Morgan keeping the audience engrossed in those authors and artists who literally walked around Gippsland during the mid 1800s and Patrick had some wonderful images to support his story. We're looking forward to Liz Rushen this coming Friday.

Twilight Author Series - Neil Everitt

The series got off to a great start with Neil Everitt holding the interest of the audience. It was good to see so many people willing to come out on a cold winters night, although the Stockyard Gallery is a warm and cosy venue. We're all looking forward to Patrick Morgan this coming Friday evening.
