Torquay was one of a limited number of events that Jodi attended in Victoria, so there was a real buzz in having an internationally known writer in our midst. Attending with a bunch of book group friends meant we were all talking books, along with a glass of wine and food. We enjoyed the time nattering over lunch before Jodi took the stage.
After an introduction by Rosemary Featherston of Torquay Books Jodi did a short reading from Change of Heart and then answered questions before settling to signing over 300 books and generously accommodating photographs.

It was a lovely day with sunshine and wonderful views to the sea over Torquay. What more could we ask for! And if your interest is books and writing then the Surf Coast has a number of great opportunities coming up. Torquay is hosting a mid-winter writers and readers festival called Froth and Bubble over the weekend of June 21-22. Aireys Inlet has the Festival of the Word from 15th to 17th August (contact Nicole on 0419 110 097 or nicole@greatescapebooks.com.au) and a 3-day Freefall Writing workshop will be held in Jan Juc – October -16th to 19th. We look forward to seeing you along the coast soon.
