Les Wicks launches Margaret Caro by Pip Griffin

 

A very congenial  and rewarding afternoon was spent to launch Pip’s new book and celebrate  the  completion of the  journey of  writing this amazingly researched and interesting woman.

The renowned and award winning poet Les Wicks  had the amazing group of people listening to his words on writing and poetry and Pip’ s new book

Margaret Caro
the extraordinary life of a pioneering dentist
New Zealand 1848 – 1938
her story in verse

The group filled the very gracious historical  Leichhardt Town Hall and it was a  buzz of  chatter and catching up with writers, poets and friends.  I was excited to be part of the day as I felt I had supported Pip in the final birthing of the book with edits and encouragement  as she suports me with my writings.

 

A team effort Pip and her son John who created the cover and flyers for the launch . Such a gift and so beautifully done.

 

The president of the NSW Societry of Women Writers
Jan Conway joined us for the celebration.
