I've known white Australian girls from wealthy families who were sent to posh private schools, who knew all of that stuff, and I think would recognise much in Jefferson's book. What I related to most strongly was the sexism and misogyny Margo Jefferson had to battle.

I love blogging, even though apparently it's still dying, and hate it when I have too much going on to do so regularly.

My Sister Rosa was bumped from the schedule. None of my books has ever been bumped before. It freaked me out.

My favourite vampires are all very scary indeed. So the idea of falling in love with one is just weird to me.

I'm sure other writers have no difficulties writing nice.

I discovered the writing of Kirsty Eagar and was blown away. Everyone needs to read her now.

I continued blogging, but between illness and deadlines, did not manage to blog nearly as much as last year. I'm hoping to do better in 2016.
