A message from The Courier-Mail
Trent Dalton and Frances Whiting are two of Queensland's most beloved writers, and both are intrinsically linked to The Courier-Mail.
Dalton was based at the newspaper's Bowen Hills office for 23 years and credits The Courier-Mail readers with giving him the strength and permission to share his story through Boy Swallows Universe. Whiting's fun and insightful weekly column has been a must-read for 27 years.
