Join us and local author, JJ Carpenter, in conversation with Daniel O'Malley. JJ has chosen to launch her recently published book, The Haunting of Kenmore Asylum, here at Goulburn Library.
JJ takes you on a journey into the world of fiction with a ghost story that will give you an insight into what life may have been like at the notoriously haunted Kenmore Asylum in the early 1900s and 1950s. 

Copies of the book will be available for sale and signed by the author.

TICKETS WILL OPEN FOR BOOKING ON 28 MAY.

MEET JJ

JJ Carpenter has been writing books since she was six years old - a collection of kooky tales she would staple together and hide in a shoebox under her bed. Penning her first novel at the age of 12, her love of all things creepy, supernatural and wild has never left her. She is the author of The Corner of Her Eye, a series of Australian ghost stories exploring the concept of purgatory. Join JJ as she journeys through haunted places and chilling mysteries across the beautiful country, and rich history, of Australia.

She was born in Canberra, Australia. She spent her childhood in various locations, including the Barossa Valley, South Australia, and Hampshire, England. As an adult, she's spent much of her career living and working in the South Pacific: Solomon Islands (twice), Vanuatu, Fiji and beyond.
