The King James Bible turns 400 this year and, in doing so, provokes scholars, linguists and the faithful to wax lyrical about its importance to knowledge, language and religion.

One of the nice things about working for yourself is that you get to choose the music, its volume, and when it needs to be turned off (to maximise concentration). I have found that Rufus Wainwright is my favourite musical companion on days spent at home getting through slabs of writing/editing/report writing/thinking type tasks. His voice never grates, sometimes he sings in French, there are mini-narratives in the song writing when you need a 'mini-distraction' and the songs vary.

I am back in Melbourne and at my desk with pencils sharpened, ready to work on interesting content projects. I have just spent an amazing 3 months exploring Central Australia in a trusty Corolla with my favourite co-pilot, a tent, a trangia, and an open-ended timeline. Our route took us from Melbourne to the Clare Valley, into the Flinders Ranges, the strange township that is Woomera, the moonscape of Coober Pedy, the awe-inspiring red centre and into the arts centres and ochre scenery around Alice Springs. Further north things started to get less familiar and exciting - crocs and Kakadu, rock art and AFL in Arnhem Land, the waterfalls of Litchfield National Park and finally Darwin. And then we turned around and drove back again. Ask me about it when you get in touch to talk about how I can help you with your content requirements.
