Brisbane Writers Festival 2014

Overview

My job with Concrete Playground involves a lot of writing. It’s true; you’re reading my work right now. Being a writer is great, but it can be a lot of hard work too. Grammar and sentence structure aside, you have to constantly think on how to make you mind words be good when you think them on paper (See what I mean?!).

The Brisbane Writers Festival celebrates those who can convey their thoughts well through the written form. Fiction, non-fiction, poetry, essays, it’s all gravy – everyone featured in the Brisbane Writers Festival Program is pretty savvy around pen and paper, so come see what they have to say about their craft, including famed Brisbane novellist, Nick Earls (pictured).

The team behind the festival have done us all a favour and posted their recommended panels to check out. If you are someone who would rather make their own decisions, then hit up the general program and sift through the amazing and informative panels on offer.
