Michèle Drouart

is the author of Into the Wadi, a memoir about the year she spent with her Muslim Arab husband¹s family in a small Jordanian village. Published in 2000 by Fremantle Arts Centre Press, Into the Wadi won the WA Premier's Book Award in 2001.

A 2006 review published in the Journal of Middle Eastern Women¹s Studies (Indiana University Press) states that her story Œoffers a contemplative, unstereotypical look at the complexities of cross-cultural experience¹. Michèle manages her own business: teaching courses in Creative Writing and doing assessments and freelance editing for aspiring writers.

ANDREW BURKE

is one of WA's most experienced teachers of creative writing. His poetry and short stories have been published in Australia's major literary journals and a volume of his poetry, Mother Waits for Father Late, was short-listed for the WA Premier's Award.

His volume of poetry, Whispering Gallery, was published by Sunline Press, and he was featured in the Wagtail Poets Series by Picaro Press in February 2003. He has taught at ECU, and has just returned from an extended sabbatical in China.
