Welcome to Painting the Bridge.

Andrew Christie is an author and blogger based on the Far South Coast of New South Wales. His crime novels are set in Sydney – where nothing stays the same for very long.

This website started life as a a quest to map the ever changing restaurant scene in Newtown – by sampling every eatery on King Street. We imagined that by the time we got to the end, so much would have changed that we would have to start over again, just like the painters on the Harbour Bridge. And then I published my first book, and we moved away from Sydney…

The Quest has changed, but the Quest continues. You can read about our travails and triumphs in the blog.
