Journal entry 13th September 2024
Holy shitballs. THE PREMIERE BOOK LAUNCH of We Are The Stars is coming up soon.
OCTOBER 1st at Bondi.
Bondi Pavilion and Gertrude & Alice Cafe Bookstore are teaming up to co-host. Richard Morecroft, who may of you remember from the ABC news and who is a dear friend, artist, author and all round legend, will be my 'In Conversation' partner as we dive into all the juicy bookish stuff.
Just because why-the-fuck-not, we've wrangled some red carpet, a media wall and a wonderful photographer so EVERYONE can feel like a celeb. I'll be frocking up a bit but barefoot as usual. (I'll post a link to your fabulous red carpet pics later on this website.)
After the offical in person conversation with Richard, I'll do the book-signing thing, many hugs and pics and all the yumminess of that. The bar will stay open until 10pm, while wonderful Mr Mapacho DJs so we can all have a wee boogie (Thank you Adrian). Think groove, funk, bass and a view of the whales.
I'll have a turn on the decks and lay down some kickarse old school funk. Betcha a zillion bucks you can't help but have a dance. The balconies overlooking Bondi Beach will be our Spring evening dance floor.
If you feel like being at the first offical We Are The Stars launch event, jump on this ticket link now, and feel free to dress up for fab pics on the mini red carpet! We'll be getting there around 530pm to mill around the bar and balconies upstairs and imbibe, theatre doors open 615pm, night finishes at 10pm.
Here's the ticket link.

Next up in Sydney is Oct 11th at St Stephens Church with Better Read Than Dead in Newtown. I'll be in conversation with icon, author and Aussie media royalty Leigh Sales. Chat 10 Looks 3, here we go! Chatters, I'm hoping to see a few of you at this one. Can't wait to squeeze you all.
