Stop Press! We’re Expanding!
After years of sharing our imagination with young people, we have decided to make ‘big people’ part of the main event!
Our publishing arm will now have another arm and two more legs, enabling:
- Literary lunches and dinners
- A ‘conscious aging’ bookclub
- Literary adventure tours
- Literary walking club
We believe life is what you make it…and we make it interesting, fun, friendly, and affordable!
More news on these events coming soon, but please join our newsletter list so you don’t miss out on our interesting lineup of events.
Send an email to myliteraryadventure@gmail.com including your name, email address, preferred phone contact.
See you soon!

Who was South Australia’s First Camel?
South Australia’s first camel arrived at Port Adelaide aboard the sailing ship S.S. Apolline in 1840.
He was viewed as a valuable asset for exploration into the northern arid lands by explorer, John Ainsworth Horrocks.
Horrocks purchased him and used him in a fateful exploration towards Lake Torrens, where the camel became famous, perhaps for the wrong reason!
