Produktbeschreibung
Ros Thomas is a familiar face in Australia, having worked as a journalist for 25 years, 17 of them in television. Ros writes a weekly op-ed column in West Weekend magazine, with a readership of 850,000. Her column is about accessible everyday topics of memory, family, working mums, nostalgia, and humor. Whether writing about her foiled attempt to seduce her husband, her encounter with the homesick Irishman she found on the beach, or why dog-people and cat-people can never be friends, Ros does so with the kind of humor and clarity that keeps her readers coming back week after week. Was It Something I Said? Misadventures in Suburbia - a collection of writings by Ros Thomas - is for anyone who has grown up, fallen in love, failed, persevered, and is still looking for the meaning of modern life. Startlingly funny, revealing, and profoundly genuine, this book will have you laughing, reminiscing, and nodding in recognition.
Autorenporträt
Ros Thomas has been a journalist for twenty-five years and writes a weekly column for The Weekend West magazine. She lives with her partner and three children in Perth, Western Australia. After finishing an Arts degree majoring in English Literature and Psychology at the University of Western Australia, Ros got a lucky break and began reading news for Perth radio stations 6KY and 96FM before moving into television. She then spent seventeen years as a journalist in television current affairs, working for the Seven and Nine Networks and the ABC. Ros is fondly referred to by her husband as 'The Minister for War', or 'Blossom' (preferring the latter) and she lives for her children, writing, photography, baking cakes and dieting.
