Tas E-News Issue 2: April 2016 Tas e-News Issue 2: April 2016 Patrons: Her Excellency Professor PO Box 113, Moonah, Tas., 7009 the Hon. Kate Warner AM email: [email protected] and Mr Richard Warner web: www.cbcatas.org Editor: Penny Garnsworthy blog: http://cbcatas.blogspot.com/ ________________________________________________________________________________________ From President Richard Our year has started well with collaboration between Tamar Valley Writers Festival, Friends of the Library Launceston and the Sustainability Learning Centre allowing us to tour Carole Wilkinson in Launceston and Hobart. While it was disappointing to see so few CBCA members at the public talks, it was heartening to see so many new people at the Hobart session. Thank you to Jenny Dudgeon (Manager, Sustainability Learning Centre) for her hospitality. April 18 sees the announcements of this year’s Notable Books, with the Short List announcement on May 20. CBCA’s Book of the Year Awards are the premier children’s literature awards; being made a notable or short listed is a huge boost to an author/illustrator’s career. One of last year’s short listed authors, debut novelist Tamsin Janu, captivated young audiences at the Tamar Valley Writers Festival. More important dates for your calendar: The Hidden Stories Forum on 7 September and 11 September. More details soon! I will be attending my last CBCA National AGM at the end of this month. CBCA Branches around the country are finding it difficult to fill committee positions. Please consider your own involvement carefully – can you help keep CBCA Tasmanian Branch alive?

Judge Tricia As this edition is distributed I will have just attended the Book of the Year Judges’ Conference in Melbourne and determined, with my fellow judges, the Notables for 2016 as well as the winning titles to be announced later in the year. The last few weeks of the judging process were a busy time of re-reading, reflection and discussion to ensure that the best of Australian children’s literature is brought to the forefront for all involved in the industry and most importantly for children. With this being my last entry for the e-News as a judge, I wish the incoming judges all the best in what has been for me a most enjoyable, professionally engaging challenge over the past 2 years. Happy Reading! Who is Karen Macpherson? Our newly appointed CBCA Tas. Judge for picture books! Karen Macpherson has been an avid reader since childhood and has been lucky that her career has allowed her to pass on her love of books to others. Karen has been a teacher in early-childhood settings, primary school and special education. Her special area of interest has always been literacy, and inspiring a love of reading in even the most reluctant of readers. Karen has worked in public libraries organising children’s programs such as ‘Babies, Books and Rhymes’; weekly storytelling sessions, and various other children’s programs. For around ten years, she worked for a children’s publisher - during which time she visited schools and booksellers. She has always enjoyed talking to students and teachers about books. Karen says that nothing beats seeing a child get excited about books and reading! She now runs her own Education Consulting and Coaching business. Karen is thrilled to have the opportunity to be a judge in the Picture Book category for the CBCA Awards and she is looking forward to sharing her passion for books with the wider community.

Or are you a teacher whose children currently receive it? You might be surprised to know that it is celebrating its centenary this year. It is the longest continuously published magazine in Australia and the creators, whose work filled its pages over all that time, are some of our best children's authors and illustrators. Through reading the magazine children are introduced to the best in children's literature and many become lifelong readers as a result. The people at The School Magazine are inviting everyone for whom it is, or was, a part of their childhood reading, to send a few words about what the Magazine means or meant to them. They want to hear from young people who are current readers, but also from people who read it, perhaps, up to 70 or more years ago. These memories are a part of the magazine's own story. They will provide a uniQue glimpse of the impact the magazine had on generations of children to ensure they are not lost. From these stories a single story about the magazine and its impact will be created, ready for the magazine’s own celebration in early August and published on the Centre’s website. How can you help? This is what the magazine wants you to tell them: • What did you most enjoy about The School Magazine ? (up to about 300 words) • When did you read it? • What school did you attend at the time? • What else made the magazine memorable for you? If you are a teacher whose children currently read it please encourage them to tell the magazine what they like about it.

    Storylines Margaret Mahy Medal Lecture 2020 Presented online 6 September 2020 Tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, bula, talofa, fakalofa lahi aut, kia orana, malo e lelei. You might be looking at what I’m wearing and wondering why I’m dressed in Victorian clothes. This outfit came about when the Scholastic team, illustrator Marco Ivancic and I were thinking of ideas for the front cover of a book we were working on. Marco drew a rough of how the main character should stand but it wasn’t quite the posture we were looking for. So, I threw on a long skirt and asked my husband to take a photo of me holding a pen in my hand. Penny Scown from Scholastic had the same idea and did a similar pose, which helped Marco draw the hand from different angles. It gave me the idea to dress like the main character at the book launch. My good friend Mary Kelleher made the outfit and here is Penny Scown and myself at the book launch of… have you guessed it?… Kate Sheppard. The reason I’ve worn it today is to show you the lengths I go to, to make my stories real for children. I’m not the only author who does – you might have seen Fifi Colston or Gareth Ward dressed in their steampunk costumes, and there are others. I write non-fiction books about historical events, famous people, and our wildlife in a creative way. Part of that is bringing it alive, whether it’s dressing the part or getting kids to act it out with me – or using props.

  • Keynote Speech - Storylines National Children’S Writers and Illustrators’ Hui, 6 October 2017
    Keynote speech - Storylines National Children’s Writers and Illustrators’ Hui, 6 October 2017 The rise and rise of New Zealand children’s publishing Tessa Duder Once upon a time – about 1978 - a young mother of four was struck in the middle of the night with an idea for a children’s novel. A sailing adventure! A family in peril! Would they survive the night?! This was very odd: she’d never written a word of fiction in her life. Sometime during the four years it took to write the story and get it published, she cut out the cartoon below from the Listener and filed it away. (Elderly man to non-so-young woman at cocktail party: And what are you falling back on to writing children’s books from?) Miraculously, 35 years and about 50 books later, she was able to find it in a musty box file. We may laugh at the sub-text of that remark, but actually ‘falling back onto children’s books’ from success as adult writers has some noble exemplars: Leo Tolstoy, Oscar Wilde, Ian Fleming, A.A. Milne. Our own Janet Frame, Joy Cowley, William Taylor, Kate De Goldi, Graeme Lay, Barbara Else. Though it’s more often the reverse: highly skilled children’s writers ‘falling back’ onto writing for adults: think Mandy Hagar, Gaelyn Gordon, David Hill, Bernard Beckett, Fleur Beale, Roald Dahl, John Marsden, J.K. Rowling. The long path to success of Under the Mountain To consider one such fallen angel of the ‘falling back on to children’s’ variety, let’s recall the New Zealand of 1974.

Remuneration of $35,000 is jointly funded by the University and Creative New Zealand. The residency is open to established children's writers who are normally resident in New Zealand. The annual residency is for a six month period between February and August and includes an office within the College.
