AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The spirit of free dialogue pulsates all through these three collections: low background noise, words free and jars of artefacts. These poems talk to you in friendly but mysterious ways and illuminate new worlds of emotion and imagination.
'Cameron Fuller was born on the shores of Lake Burley Griffin in Canberra. He has lived in Brisbane, Sydney and Cairns, but keeps returning to Adelaide, where he has done most of his living and writing. Having studied at five universities in three states, he holds a degree at the University of Queensland and has recently completed Honours in Professional Writing and Communications at the University of South Australia.
'Simone G Matthews loves reading and writing poetry, fiction, biography and across the genre explorations. She is writing her first novel as part of her PhD studies under the supervision and mentorship of Marion May Campbell.'  (Publication summary)
