GEOFF GOODFELLOW'S HOT NEW RELEASES
NEWLY RELEASED VERSE NOVELLA:
BLIGHT STREET
Blight Street opens with a Foreword from the Honourable Chris Kourakis, Chief Justice of South Australia. In his conclusion, he states:
This is a must for parents, for teachers, for young adults and for everyone who has an understanding of, and sympathy for, human frailty and the raw emotions of the human condition.
UPCOMING TOURS
Goodfellow provides audiences with a perspective on working class life in Australia today. He doesn’t romanticize or turn a blind eye to important issues like drug & alcohol abuse, domestic violence, issues of consent, blue collar employment, unemployment, generational poverty and how destitution can manifest in criminal behaviour.
Geoff’s message is strong: get an education because language is power.
1st May, 2023 - through to 12th May
PORT LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL
Geoff will be working with SENIOR ENGLISH STUDENTS, starting with a performance and discussion about how to use Geoff’s poems and short stories to achieve the TRANSFORMATION TASK.
He’ll be suggesting particular poems and talking through the techniques he applies.
Then students will have the unique opportunity to work 1:1 with Geoff where they will receive advice on drafting and refining to bring their piece to publication standard.
Geoff brings with him 40 years of experience and looks forward to working with and assisting students of all abilities.
Book Early. Don’t miss out on experiencing Goodfellow’s presentation of poetry for yourself.
