Award winning and much-loved Canberra writer Marion Halligan has died at the age of 83.
Marion worked as a teacher and journalist before publishing her first short stories in the 1980s.
She wrote more than 20 books , was shortlisted for the Miles Franklin and the Nita Kibble awards and won the ACT Book of the Year three times.
Writer Nigel Featherstone spoke to us about Marion: from her legendary writers group The Canberra Seven, and her support of other writers, to his favourites among her many books, and their shared love of the semi-colon.
