Show Notes:
In our second creative writing segment, we practice our writing craft to develop strong characters. Join us as we look at mugshots from the New South Wales Police Forensic Photography Archive, taken in the early 1900s. The idea for this podcast came from our recent interview with debut author Cheryl Sullivan. If you would like to join in, head over to Mugshots of Sydney in the 1920s at thepleasureofthetext.com.

Graham Greene
English writer and journalist, the late Graham Greene (1904-1991), was regarded as one of the leading English novelists of the 20th century. Strangely enough, he developed a reputation as both a ‘serious writer’, working on Catholic novels, and what he called ‘entertainers’ or thrillers. He was shortlisted for the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1966 and 1967; however, in 1966, Nelly Sachs and Shmuel Yosef Agnon co-won, and in 1967, Miguel Ángel Asturias won the final title. He was recruited into MI6 (Military Intelligence, Section 6, or SIS), the foreign intelligence service of the UK, by his sister Elisabeth in 1941, where he met and befriended Kim Philby, a secret Soviet Agent; Greene later wrote the introduction to Philby’s 1968 memoir, My Silent War.
