Jane Doe and the Quill of all Tales. So proud of my cuz Jem launching his third book in the series. The commitment to make this happen is amazing. He spoke of the battle for artist during COVID, the 2019/2020 fires and the internal battle to keep writing. He nailed it (again).
I think ABC have discovered Sol. I’ll have to share him with the world. It’s such a pleasure travelling life with him #bigrocks m.facebook.com/story.php?sto…

A few years ago UOW geologist Solomon Buckman @SolBuckman and his family went on a 6 month road trip to check out Australia's rocks. In this article, @ABCaustralia interviews the Professor about Australia's largest rocks. Spoiler: Uluru isn't the biggest.
