Scott Pearce spoke about his debut novel, faded yellow by the winter, in a conversation we held at Bunjil Place Library in Narre Warren. During the conversation he outlined his process as a writer and his methods of developing a narrative and characterisation.

He also spoke about his conflicted pleasures in enjoying Australian Rules football, his engagement with the mythology of the game, toxic masculinity and the meanings of footy clubs to small towns.
