‘You just go My God, how did this happen?’ How did this happen in such a short amount of time?’
Toni Jordan’s first novel Addition was released in early 2008 to international and local acclaim. It’s been the centre of a maelstrom of change in her life, both getting it published and then riding the wave of success. The past four Melbourne Writer’s Festivals have marked out her transition from audience member to established writer. So much so that she has become something of a poster girl for the festival.
