24.01.2022 Woo-hoo!! Check out Word of Mouth TV's final Recommended Reads for the season, which we capped off with a fantastic interview with literary couple Debra Oswald and Richard Glover and their novels The Whole Bright Year and The Land Before Avocado. As we mentioned earlier, we had so many, we decided to split them out. This post includes Sarah and Kate's reads, and Sarah reviews Crazy Rich Asians. Enjoy!

23.01.2022 Share a link to your book on my author's page LA Larkin Author I want to help other authors promote their books. Just a sentence, with an image and where people can buy it. Please only do this on LA Larkin Author
22.01.2022 Just got out of surgery and I'm binge watching Younger on Stan, (thanks to a recommendation from author Christine Wells), a fabulous take on the modern publishing industry from the creators of Sex in the City - so much fun - so many veiled book and publishing references. Curious to know if anyone else is watching it and what they think? https://bit.ly/3kb5RzU
22.01.2022 I love 60s fashion so I think I will check this out on Netflix. Has anyone seen it. It's about gender bias and the cold war - and follows the life of an incredible female chess player and is based on the 1983 novel by Walter Tevis.
19.01.2022 Looking for something to read during the Coronavirus lockdown? Kate offers up book reviews of a few fabulous Australian and British authors - a range of genres for different tastes. Filmed on iphone, it's a bit of an experiment. We hope to perfect the book review format over the next few months - guess we'll have plenty of time to think about it, although I have to say we have all been incredibly busy despite it all. ... Enjoy!! https://bit.ly/2yMWVyv
17.01.2022 Wonderful tribute to Reddy!! They should do an international one. Leave it to Judith Lucy to get things done. https://www.youtube.com/watch
14.01.2022 Remember, this is only a guide.
12.01.2022 Hello ladies and gents. What a wonderful time we've had producing Word of Mouth TV. We hope you've enjoyed our episodes and the spirit behind our endeavour to help you meet some of your favourite authors. Given the dearth of book shows or nod to literature on TV, we wanted to try and swing the scales in the opposite direction just a little bit: less football, more culture!! More civilisation!! Australia has so much to offer, and Australia truly has a vibrant, interesting, generous cultural heart. Thank you for celebrating this with us, and we recommend this final post for the season wherein we reveal the future of Word of Mouth TV. #books #food #wordofmouthtv #kateforsyth #slmills #amreading #iamreading #amwriting https://bit.ly/2vYdYN5
11.01.2022 Charles Dickens died on this day in 1870 at his home, Gadshill. Charles Dickens on his deathbed by J.E. Millais. Alfred Tennyson saw the sketch hanging in Millais studio and after staring at it for sometime said, This is the most extraordinary drawing. It is exactly like myself.

08.01.2022 Yesterday - in my writing class @qldwriters - I was asked to recommend some #writing books & I grabbed some of my favourites off my shelf. I thought I’d photograph them for you before I put them back
06.01.2022 I'm cooking this for dinner tonight. It is the perfect winter dish and I don't know what the weather is like where you are, but here in the mountains, it's cold, overcast and drizzling. Definitely Icelandic Fish Stew weather - thank you Richard Fidler for the great tip. https://bit.ly/2UuXWDb

02.01.2022 Today we have made the inevitable but nonetheless devastating decision to cancel this year’s Sydney Writers’ Festival, which was scheduled to run from 27 April ...to 3 May. In light of current public health advice regarding the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), and non-essential public gatherings of more than 500 people, it is impossible and inadvisable to proceed with the 2020 Festival. This is an unprecedented, deeply upsetting and challenging time for everyone, but the health and safety of authors, audiences, staff, publishers, volunteers and our community must come first. We recognise that the cancellation of this year’s Festival will have a significant impact on the literary community, and especially on writers whose work was to be featured for the first time in this program. We urge you our audience and community to support these authors and your local booksellers in what is sure to be a challenging year. The 2020 Festival is now a time capsule, representing a program of 437 writers from 14 countries appearing across 346 events. It is also a wide-ranging reading list featuring our world’s most exhilarating, honest, clever, ambitious, joyful and disquieting writers. Look to the Festival’s digital and podcast channels in the coming weeks and months as we highlight, support and celebrate the work of the writers in this year’s program. We are facing an extraordinarily challenging moment in the 23-year history of the Festival. And without box office revenue, there will be more difficult times ahead. But Sydney Writers’ Festival will return in 2021. Customers who purchased tickets for the 2020 Sydney Writers’ Festival, our schools programs, and our event with Patti Smith and Paul Kelly at Sydney Town Hall on 8 April will be contacted for reimbursement. We are very grateful for the loyalty and understanding of the Sydney Writers’ Festival community. We wish you well during this time and look forward to seeing you at the 2021 Festival.
