The B List with Donna Ward

This month's B List welcomes Donna Ward who discusses her compelling collection of fiercely intelligent, deeply intimate, lyrical reflections on the life of a woman who stands on the threshold between two millennia. Both manifesto and confession, her memoir explores the meaning and purpose she discovered in a life lived entirely without a partner and children.

Donna Ward is the publisher at Inkerman & Blunt. She founded indigo, the journal of Western Australian creative writing. Her prose can be found in respected journals and anthologies nationally, internationally and online. She has past lives as a psychotherapist and as a social worker. She worked in her own private practice, in welfare management and social policy development.  

She, I Dare Not Name: A Spinster's Meditations on Life, is Donna's first book.
