Men of Letters
Much-loved lit event Women of Letters is doing a slight, temporary rebrand, simply by dropping their first syllable.
Overview
Every year, one of Australia's favourite lit events undergoes a slight, temporary rebranding, simply by dropping their first syllable. Yep, Women of Letters becomes Men of Letters, bringing to the Zoo stage a huge selection of Brisbane's — hell Australia's — best male talent as they rediscover the lost art of letter writing.
Included on this year's jam-packed lineup are a wealth of the titular men-folk, including singer and Star Wars star Jay Laga'aia, and The Grates guitarist and Southside Tea Room co-owner John Patterson. They'll be demonstrating their winning ways with words, and they're not alone.
Also having a hand in the day's letter writing are local rebel priest Peter Kennedy, Aussie artist Michael Zavros, writer and editor Khalid Warsame, actor Leon Cain, broadcaster Ian 'Dano' Rogerson, Twitter's Thomas Violence (aka Ben McLeay), and former Big Brother contestant Ben Zabel. Each will be penning and reading a letter to 'The Woman Who Changed My Life'.
Doors open at 3pm, and wine, cheese, stamps and envelopes are provided. Grab your finest quill and head along.
