South Side Quills Anthology to be launched by Mayor
South Side Quills writers group is set to launch its first published book on the 25th August. The publication, an anthology titled The Runaway Quill: Tales from the South Side Quills, will be launched by Mayor, Gary Brennan at the Bunbury City Library.
The Writers Group
The group, known as South Side Quills started in 2010 with just four local writers with a vision to provide a supportive environment for committed writers to develop their skills, and to share new contacts and networks. The enthusiastic group culminated from a handful of like minded people from various backgrounds, with a passion to write.
Quills members
All members have enjoyed successes along the way, including wins in writing competitions and various publications. The eclectic selection of writing reflects the diversity of the group with a range of works, including novels, short stories, biographies, children’s stories, travel articles and poetry.
Members all agree that being part of a writers group helps to keep them going. Published author and SS Quills member James McRobert said he found the support and encouragement from the group very helpful along the writing journey.
Anthology Book Launch
The Runaway Quill: Tales from the South Side Quills, will be launched by Mayor, Gary Brennan at the Bunbury City Library on Thursday 25 August 2016, starting at 5pm. Books will be available for purchase and wine and cheese will be served on the night.

I am THRILLED for you all. And envious that you have such a supportive group on your doorstep. Have a fabulous launch and enjoy every success that comes your way. You KNOW I know what a big achievement this is. xxxx
Thanks so much for your messages Gwen , sorry I didn’t respond earlier – it’s been a busy time …
Hi Ingrid,
Thanks for this! Well done to you all and hope the launch night goes really well👍🎉🎊
I have been meaning to let you know that Graeme and I are relocating to Busselton in November with his work.😱 We hope to be settled before the end of that month.
It all happened very quickly, and we are now in the throes of all the stuff that rears its head when one make these life changing decisions!
We will rent out our house here, and hopefully find something suitable to rent there. I will commute to work initially and stay over with a friend until, fingers crossed, I find something there😳
Of course the good news is that I may get to see a bit more of you, Kathy and Barb!
Funny how life can change in an instant hey?!
How are you progressing with your trip plans? Carolyn came up last Sunday to give me advice on how to pack with the minimum of fuss! She did a brilliant job and my case is literally half empty:) I am now thinking of other stuff I can fill it up with😅
Anyway, I’ll keep in touch and will let you know how things progress for us.
Enjoy your travels, and look forward to a catch up sometime when we’re both back in WA!
Love,
