Australia’s Flying Doctors

Although the Royal Flying Doctor Service Adventures are fiction, they include lots of factual information. George Ivanoff talks about the research involved with writing these books, and the balance of fact and fiction. Medical research on the Internet, liaising with the RFDS and visiting locations are some of the things covered in this session.

Topics:

• Research
• Balancing fact and fiction
• Firsthand experience versus research
• Real life events as inspiration for fiction
