Did you know Aussie authors can get paid when you borrow their book from a library? How good is that!
I haven’t done a lot of theatre work these past few months but I have done a lot of reading! Old, new, fiction, non-fiction, children’s, YA! Escaping into another world for a few hours helps me understand the world I live in right now. Support writers! Read all the books and if you can’t buy, borrow them!
