Funding campaigns

Thank you to all who supported our Kickstarter campaign to help fund Rocking Boat's first four ‘dream-come-true’ illustrated children’s books,authored by four fabulous, neurodiverse young adults

The books are now a reality and we're planning new workshops, and hopefully new publications for 2024!

See our publication page for details of books and purchase arrangements.

Workshops are available to you too. See our workshop page. Local Blue Mountains workshops will be advertised when available.

FYI - a key innovation in the workshops is to ‘write’ orally – imagination, ideas, building suspense, intriguing the reader, not literal literacy were the things that counted. We use scribes to record authors, we do performance to develop and refine ideas, we collate, write-up, act again, re-think, discuss, edit etc.

Meet our first four authors (and the old person is me, Ann):
