1 A Change of Heart : An Exploration of My Changing Occupational Identity in Central Australia Jane Leonard , 2011 single work essay
— Appears in: Northern Territory Literary Awards 2011 2011; (p. 100-106) 'On my daughter’s birth certificate eleven years ago, I noted my occupation as ‘writer’. We were living in inner city Melbourne at the time. Now, as I fill out forms to register her for high school in Alice Springs, where we have lived for over ten years, I write ‘adult educator’ in response to the same question about what I do. While only a simple change of words, this shift in the label I give myself encompasses a much a deeper process of adaptation, development and transition in my personal, educational and career trajectories. ...'
