WOOHOO! I’m the luckiest author alive to have such a HIGH PROFILE , well-respected guest speaker and community leader to my book launch.
DRUM ROLL: Logan Mayor Pam Parker will launch ME AND HER: a Memoir of Madness at Logan North Library on Tuesday 1st of May @ 6pm.
I’m thrilled Pam will introduce me and my mental health recovery memoir to the Logan community, launching ME AND HER: a Memoir of Madness. Pam has supported me since 2010 when I first created Logan City Writers collective. Pam Parker staunchly supports community based projects such as National Year of Reading, Indigenous Literacy and MORE
Logan City Libraries has advertised my Author Visit on their website in their event calendar. I LOVE the blurb they wrote in their own words …
Local author and teacher Karen Tyrrell recounts how workplace pressures pushed her over the edge into the frightening world of the psychiatric health system. Hear Karen’s brave story of reclaiming her life.
Mayor Pam Parker will launch this inspirational mental health recovery memoir.
