Highlights of 2019: No. 3: John Silvester’s Naked City article ‘Ex-crims talking crooks straight’.

Posted on December 30, 2019 by Claire Seppings

The third significant memorable event of 2019 is thanks to John Silvester, legend Australian journalist and crime writer extraordinaire.

Titled ‘Ex-crims talking crooks straight’ John tells my story, the catalyst for my Churchill Fellowship; how that led to Deakin University’s Straight Talking Peer Mentoring program and highlights one of the programs inspirational peer mentors Simon Fenech.

Here is the story written by John, in his most brilliant style, for his regular Saturday Age column Naked City.
