Meet the Creators of Wylah The Koorie Warrior

Meet the Creators of Wylah The Koorie Warrior

Richard Pritchard and Jordan Gould are the creators of the new book, Wylah The Koorie Warrior: Guardians! Want to read our full interview with Richard Pritchard and Jordan Gould? Grab the July 2022 'Rise Up' issue of K-Zone, on sale now!

KZ: Hi Richard and Jordan! What was your favourite thing about working on Wylah’s story together?

R: Researching all the Aboriginal history and culture, it’s so rich and rewarding. Jordan has such a strong desire to build a bridge with non-indigenous people and to do that in a positive way.

J: I would say the same. I learned a lot about Richard's culture, as much as I learned about mine. The fact we are two creative people working on a meaningful project together, it's an amazing experience.

KZ: Do you have any advice for K-Zoners who want to write a book one day?

R: Write just the idea of the book, design a cover and see if you can convince someone to buy it. If people buy it and get excited about the idea, then start writing the full book.

J: It's definitely an uphill battle and a challenge of patience. A lot of people will have criticisms about your ideas, but if you stay true to your story, and keep other people's criticisms into account, you will do great.

KZ: Which of Wylah’s characteristics do you have, or wish you had?

R: I wish I had Wylah’s courage to face things I was afraid of when I was younger.

J: I'd say I would have Wylah's determination for the language and culture.

KZ: How would you describe the book using only three words?

R: Action, Adventure, Fun.

J:: Spearhead of Mainstream Culture.
