Write a book in a day? Yer on mate!

I'm busy assembling the dream team! Forget fantasy footy comps, although I'm sure my team could kick, mark, handball, crumb, tackle and, if necessary, sledge with the best of them. Believe me, much as I love Aussie Rules, chasing the Sherrin around a paddock for 2 hours in a colourful singlet and bum-hugging shorts has nothing on this. What's at sake here is the stuff of real heroics (performed by real style mavens). I'm talking Write-a-Book-in-a-Day, the fundraising comp in which a team of writers puts together a children's book in 12 hour marathon, working from a scenario provided by the comp organisers: http://kspf.iinet.net.au/bookinaday/
 It's all for the aid of sweet charity, in this instance Princess Margaret Hospital for Children in WA. As playing coach, I've drafted my crew from a handy little pool of creatives - likely types who've been toughened up to full match fitness - and I'm breaching all metaphorical salary caps. We're going to write up (and raise) a storm - and I don't mean Melbourne! Stay tuned.
