Lea Scott, author of The Ned Kelly Game

Readersvoice.com aims to collect a few interesting reading tips. For this issue I interviewed Lea Scott, author of The Ned Kelly Game. It’s a well-plotted story about some teenagers who steal bushranger Ned Kelly’s skull from the Old Melbourne Gaol. When they’re adults, they’re murdered one by one, by hanging. The main character, Felicity Simons, who was a friend of the teenagers all those years ago, could be next.

Thriller writer Ian Jay on book reviewing

READERSVOICE.COM aims to collect a few interesting reading tips. Ian Jay is the author of the thrillers To Do or Die, and Echidna. He has also been a book reviewer for ABC Radio, Australia. I interviewed him about reviewing books, and how authors should keep a reviewer’s eye on their own writing.
In late November he gave a talk at Women on Oxford, a writers group in Brisbane. They had another good speaker earlier in 2009, screenwriter Jason Tolsher. He gave some great writing tips at his talk. After his talk he gave me a list of screenwriting books, including some great memoirs by screenwriters, which I’ve listed here. First up, Ian Jay.
