    Have you ever dressed up as a life-sized paper doll, used a typewriter in a public bathroom or traveled to multiple continents to learn more about sheep? Meet Kara Dunne, who has done all of the above and more in the name of art.

    In this conversation, you’ll learn more about why and how many artistic modalities are part of Kara’s artistic practice, as well as about her most challenging project to date: a book called ‘Shopping Cart Shepherds’ and all of the serendipity leading to its creation. You’ll hear about the importance of following the breadcrumbs in a creative project, no matter if you know where they’ll lead, as well as what Kara’s up to now and next.

    Send us a text

    Today’s guest is Rosie Meleady, Irish author and my first cousin once removed!

    Rosie is currently having a fabulous midlife crisis in Italy, running women’s writing retreats in Italy twice a year, and hosting women solo travellers and creatives in her Umbrian villa guest house. She writes humorous living memoir and humorous fiction.

    Through this conversation, you’ll better understand Rosie’s journey as both an independent and traditionally published author, her process for writing ‘living memoir’ (or ‘reality TV in book form’, as she calls it), and the advice she has for new authors. You’ll also learn why your new favourite creative hobby could be eavesdropping.
