This year is Beacon's turn to host NEWROC's Literary Lunch! We have Annie de Monchaux, author of Audrey's Gone AWOL, coming to present this fabulous afternoon. Annie is a writer based in West Australia. Her non-fiction Cray Tales was shortlisted for the WA Premier’s Literary Award and became the basis of a documentary.
After qualifying as a nurse Annie abandoned that option to work in Hollywood - rewriting scripts -Superman II, III amongst others. She’s renovated a restaurant in France, painted murals on three continents, interviewed nannies for the Royal Midwife in London, made TV adverts in Australia. Then motherhood.
In 2023 Annie was signed by Sarah McKenzie Literary Management and secured a two-book deal with Ultimo Press. Audrey’s Gone AWOL was published in April 2024 and her second novel is to be released in 2026.
Doors open at 10:30 with presentation starting at 11 followed by lunch at 12. More information such as ticket prices and menu to come, so for now please put this date in your calendars.
