A collaboration on the cover (with Harry Williamson) of the brilliant, "Blindness for Beginners" and a book of short fairy stories written & illustrated by her granddaughter, Silver. Great fun doing these!

14.01.2022 Great article in The Age today. worth a read :-) https://www.theage.com.au//what-the-pandemic-has-writers-t JESSIE TU... I go for a run or walk at least once a day. There’s great solace and comfort in being inside the body rather than inside the mind. My work as a writer and journalist is 100 per cent using my mind, so keeping the body moving is so important. I consume a lot of films and books, but I feel films give me a more expedient sense of visceral space than other forms of art, so I’ve felt calmed by watching films lately. I also feel walking is critical to my sense of selfhood. I can slow down, pay attention to nature, look at tangible features of the natural world and have a relationship with it. We should be asking ourselves what’s important to our own individual lives. I’ve started keeping a diary called things I’ll miss when I die. I’m always thinking about death. I find this addiction completely inspiring. It makes me cut through a lot of junk. Like, I’m able to simply not do things that are not on the list. I won’t miss Instagram when I am dead, so I hardly ever go on it. I won’t miss Twitter, social media, being online. I try to only spend time doing things that are on my list watching a sunset, cooking dinner and entertaining friends, reading a really great book and talking about it with my sister.

14.01.2022 Here are some of the designs by hubber, Bee. "Essential Tips for Flute Players" by Sally Hughes - available on Amazon. "My Mother's Harvest" by hubber, Maribel Steel, available at Blurb.com or www.maribelsteel.com - And CD "Crossing Paths" by Harry Jackson & Bob Kohler.
