One of the first Kiwi creatives to put up their hands to help schools struggling with post-Covid-mandate staff shortages has also just won a Prime Minister's Awards for Literary Achievement.
And to top off a big month, Anne Kennedy has just published a new collection of often confronting poems, The Sea Walks into a Wall.
Anne's also a novellist and short story writer, and she taught creative writing in both Tāmaki Makaurau and Hawai'i.
Lynn Freeman asks her why she was so keen to offer her time and expertise to schools when she first saw the idea floated on Twitter?
The Sea Walks into a Wall by Anne Kennedy is published by Auckland University Press.
