Bendigo Writers Council

BWC Writers Explore June – Writing Non-Fiction – From Idea to Publication
with Judith Long

Important Update

Please note:

– Until further notice, due to building works, entry to the library is via the rear doors in Lyttleton Terrace… please ring the BWC bell if we’re not there to welcome you.

Judith Long spent her early childhood years on a farm about 50 kilometres from Wudinna on central Eyre Peninsula. It is an area with a very recent white history and both sets of grandparents were among the first white settlers in the area.

Although she has spent most of her working life as an occupational therapist, she has always had an interest in local history. Six years ago she wrote and self-published the The Waddikee Rock Honor Roll, an outline of the service of World War Two soldiers from a small rural community on central Eyre Peninsula.

When she’s not researching and writing about history, she’s busy with her other interests of travel, military history and fashion. She currently lives in  Bendigo in central Victoria.

Bring pens and paper and be inspired.
