Sailing To Cairns

Sailing To CairnsSailing To Cairns (book)

Print: $11.45

Dennis and Diane sailed a sixteen foot yacht from Sydney to Cairns. They set out with a few dodgey bits of equipment and an Alan Lucas cruising guide. Dennis wrote the log. Diane wrote the very funny novel of the adventure. Inside its pages you will find a humorous account of the journey laced with invaluable information for the fellow intrepid sailor. I'd suggest a slightly bigger boat - but so long as it floats it can be done.

Review: Your writing is brilliant and more than a tad courageous. Those who can, write; those who can’t, review. As it is said, “If you can’t sing: don’t!” Your writing per se is impeccable; your imagination and imagery, wonderfully vivid. QAC AWARD Diane Andrews work was highly commended in a past QAC competition and it is easy to see why. She writes with a firm confidence in her characters and her story, and this helps to propel the reader very easily from page to page. Her characters are engaging and have depth, thair back-stories are credible and the various jeopardies they find themselves in help push the plot further and further. The fictional and magical world Diane Andrews writes about seems to contain a fully realised internal logic. The ‘Speed of Darke’ is an absorbing tale, with much darkness and complexity of character. The lead is a strongly written female character and the scenes of violence and sexuality are compelling without being gratuitous. Highly commended
