Storylines Margaret Mahy Medal Lecture 2020
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. -

This contemporary realistic fiction series aims to pay tribute to the inspiring courage and resilience of children, who are often the most vulnerable in post-disaster periods. Four inspirational stories give insight into environment, culture and identity through one child’s eyes. www.throughmyeyesbooks.com.au Advisory Note There are children in our schools for whom the themes and events depicted in Angel will be all too real. Though students may not be at risk of experiencing an immediate disaster, its long-term effects may still be traumatic. -

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. -
