Today’s podcast guest is author Louisa Bennet.
Dark Matter Zine Acknowledges this recording is taking place on the unceded Country of the Bunurong Peoples’ of the Kulin Nation as Traditional Owners and Custodians of this Country. I pay my respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
Introducing Louisa Bennet
Louisa studied Literature at the University of London and went on to learn Canine Linguistics from her Golden Retriever, Pickles, which is how she discovered what dogs really get up to when we’re not around. Truth be told, the beloved and much-missed Pickles came up with the idea for the Monty Dog Detective Mysteries, and Louisa just transcribed it. She was faster on the keyboard and less easily distracted by food and passing squirrels.
Louisa’s golden retrievers Lilly and Tigger continue to be the inspiration for this feel-good series.
Louisa also writes crime-thrillers as L.A. Larkin – with Prey published by Clan Destine Press – and teaches crime writing at the Australian Writers’ Centre.

Acknowledgement of Country
Dark Matter Zine Acknowledges this recording is taking place on the unceded Country of the Bunurong Peoples’ of the Kulin Nation as Traditional Owners and Custodians of this Country. I pay my respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.
(I have occasionally acknowledged Country in podcasts. This year I aim to lift my game in many areas, so I plan to Acknowledge Country in every podcast. An Acknowledgement of Traditional Owners can be done by anyone. It’s a way of showing awareness of, and respect for, the Aboriginal Traditional Owners of the land where a meeting or event is held. For more information about Country and respect for Australia’s First Nations, read this post that also has links to useful websites.)
