Maggie is very brave. She was born during the Blitz, so she got to be fearless, and I am not really very brave.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But we&#8217;re of similar backgrounds, and both growing up as the only child. My experiences as a child in different countries and how I felt during those times gave me a way of looking through her eyes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In a feat the envy of most writers, the story came to Radonich in an intense writing blitz over a short period.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I started writing it a bit before ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred hit, and then while that was all happening, I was writing on an 18th-century writing slope while the power was off, which was fun,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I finished the first draft around a week after the cyclone ended.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not religious or anything, but I am spiritual, and it was honestly like being moved by something bigger than myself.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was just pouring out of me. I&#8217;ve never had that before; it was incredible. I had so much fun writing it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Radonich will conduct a reading and book signings at her Citadel launch, featuring live music by Jenny McGregor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The book is a love letter to wild places and the people who find themselves in them,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s about the moment we realise that courage isn&#8217;t the absence of fear, it&#8217;s the decision to keep listening to the world&#8217;s whispers, even when they break our hearts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Elephant Whisperer&#8217;s Daughter is available through Bowerbird Publishing and all good book retailers.<\/p>\n<p>The Wednesday, December 10 launch is a free community event.
