Dear friends and colleagues,
After many years in the editor's chair, I have decided to retire from Dance Australia magazine at the end of the year.
Dance is my lifelong love but it is time to hang up the keyboard. I am looking forward to indulging my other loves: visual art (specifically painting) and writing. However, dance is still my love and I hope to continue to contribute to the artform in some other way.
I am looking forward to welcoming the new editor - still to be announced.
Here's to the next chapter!
