The Junction
I live in the fascinating centre of the ‘Great Bugger-all’, Outback Australia. I have strong penchants for writing and oral history and am working on a book about a community founded by Gurindji strikers and their assistants in the 1970s.
This blog contains entertaining and informative articles, complex essays, rants, raves and musings, something of a journal (This Life) and a few snaps from the trail. Information and excerpts from Hunting Wave Hill, my book and Masters thesis on the Wave Hill Walk-off’s legacy, also emerge here.
Navigating the Categories:
Writing Life- The entries on this page are pieces writtten for publication, as well as some comments about writing.
This Life- Posts from a journal written on the trail, and a few pictures too.
Process Work- I have been dipping into PW since 1994 and was an enrolled student 2004-09. Here I share something of the revelatory worlds of Process-Oriented Psychology.

My “andama”, or nickname, was once upon a rhyme, blob. The slime molds will inherit the earth, and the blobs, blogs, and blots will get a free ride. Middle age blows a cryptic wind through a hollow head. Rise and exult all ye elfin warriors!

Hi Charlie,
Do you have an email address I could contact you through? I’ve just found your website and would love to have a chat to you about a few things, Territory/stolen generation related.
Cheers,
Holly.

Mr. Charles,
Nice blog. Can’t wait to read your communiqués from the red-dead-heart-centre-country. I’d like to see you write something on ‘Wake in Fright’… Next time you’re in Melbourne remind me to take you to Famine Rock. I think you’d like it.
Kele,
Gibbo

housey! liked your blog about messages from the afterlife, a lot.
Luke was saying maybe there could be a disclaimer at the end of the next edition of Oz legend that recognises race and gender war left out of the original thesis.
I thought that it both Russel and the revisionists could be right on their points.
remember the pawpaws for viv.
Love you.
you can delete that second last part if it’s emnbarrasing. xx t
