Various behind-the-scenes actions happening, including:
- Applying for Arts Tasmania's Crowbar crowdfunding assistance.

On a personal note, both myself and Justin (my husband) each farewelled family members. May Christine (my aunt) and Zachary (Justin's nephew) rest in peace.

Mock-up draft version of PAUSE in hardcover received - first look at what the real books might be like.
January-July 2016
PAUSE is to take the format of a collection of my Tasmanian photos, paired with some prose I am writing especially for the book.
The 32 'moments' of prose in PAUSE were written over six months; each are a peice of creative story-telling which draw a reader deeper into the images using emotive and transportive writing.
2015
The dreams and ideas for PAUSE, and what format it may take, begin to be nurtered. A simple coffee table book of Tasmanian images, or something more that resonates stronger with my own personality and passion for the island?
