Kirsty Rice is a writer, and a mother of four children living in Qatar. Born in Australia, as an adult she has lived in Libya, Indonesia, Malaysia, Canada and Qatar. So many stories to tell! This one is about how to get published in the New York Times by breaking a bone, and about life as a parent and resident in Qatar. Yvette Vignando interviewed Kirsty in a Balmain park, using a tree, as you do.
Part 2 of this interview is coming soon.
Kirsty's blog is called 4 kids, 20 Suitcases and a Beagle
