Friday, 16 December 2022: OOTA members and friends gathered in the cafe courtyard at the Fremantle Arts Centre to celebrate another twelve months of productive and engaging writing. In addition to lively literary discussion, good fellowship and a festive luncheon, members also celebrated the recent publication of Tempus, OOTA’s 2022 anthology of prose and poetry, inspired by the theme of Time.

Rob Manning, Alison Davis, Annie Robinson and Lucy Czerwiec read excerpts from their entries, which reflect the very high standard of writings that comprise the anthology.

The OOTA committee thanks all members for their efforts and contributions this year and wishes everyone all the very best for the festive season and for a happy and productive New Year.
