Huge congratulations to Dr Elizabeth Green and the Exisle Publishing team on No Time for Makeup making the WA Premier’s Book Awards shortlist. We had a lot of fun creating the cover for this one, great to see it getting this recognition!
While we excitedly wait to find out the winners of this year's WA Premier's Book Awards , we want to celebrate one of our titles which made it to the shortlist: No Time for Makeup.
✈️ Written by Dr Elizabeth Green, this is the incredible story of a woman who took the path less travelled to work for the Royal Flying Doctor Service in outback Australia, and what the experience taught her about life, death and human connection.
‘A girl from the bush becomes a flying doctor and a paediatrician — a compelling story of courage, determination and, above all, professional dedication, filled with gratitude for those who helped her along the way.’
— Jay Weatherill, former Premier of South Australia
About the author:

She worked in hospitals and in rural and city general practice before landing a job with the Royal Flying Doctor Service in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. The children of the outback inspired her to become a paediatrician, a passion lived for twenty-four years as a private paediatrician in Perth/Boorloo and ongoing, shouting out for children to be seen and heard.
