Stop and Think

“I read today that mostly people speak with the intention of making themselves sound more important or invoking sympathy from the listener. I’ve been saying a lot less since I read that.” – Royce Vagg.

Better Living

Every day you should:

1. Make a decision that improves your health.

2. Compliment someone.

3. Do something to help the environment.

That way, you have a good excuse when your neighbor catches you planting trees on their nature strip at 3am.

Accountability

This is for all the would-be writers:

You could be writing right now. Stop browsing the internet. Even if you only write 100 words today, it’s 100 more than you’ll write browsing lolcats and 4chan for the next two hours. Yes, I see what you did there…

Including 'Bandershin' and 'White' by Talitha Kalago.

In 2011 Category 5 tropical cyclone ‘Yasi’ ripped across far North Queensland, destroying homes and leaving thousands without power and water, cut off by washed out roads and deadly fallen powerlines. These are the tales born—not of the cyclone—but of the fevered imaginations of writers; isolated, unwashed and suffering in the tropical heat without our beloved air-conditioning.
Here in the tropics insidious monsters heave themselves onto muddy banks, housewives grapple with man-sized pythons and unprepared tourists face death on dusty, lifeless outback roads.

Buckle down for 18 stories and 13 poems from the wet, wild and rugged Far North Queensland’s best poets and writers.

Category 5 is available in traditional media from the 19th of November and as an e-book for the kindle on Amazon in the New Year!

Including 'Blood and Bone' by Talitha Kalago
