Brisbane Writers Festival
Writers under pressure are, at present, tense, so take a break and make sure the Brisbane Writers Festival punctuates your week.
Overview
Hey! You! You're a Brisbane writer, aren't you? Or do you just really, really love books? In any case, our city's flagship writing event needs to be written into your diary/notebook or onto your hand stat.
The Brisbane Writers Festival has been drawing audiences since most of us were learning to write. The whole event's cause is to celebrate Queensland's great scribes, educate aspiring writers and please the readers, all at the same time. There's a hell of a lot of events on the exhaustive program, so you should check it out and get in ASAP to ensure you get the pen...ultimate seat.
I recommend you catch one of Brisbane's best imports (from Iceland, no less), Kari Gislason, comedian Corinne Grant as she talks about odd people, and hilarious children's author Andy Griffith (The Day My Bum Went Psycho, anyone?). Also visiting our fair town is comedian Wendy Harmer, former Triple J presenter and all-round lovely lady, Marieke Hardy and the man made of forty-eight shades of brown, Nick Earls.
Writers under pressure are, at present, tense, so take a break and make sure the Brisbane Writers Festival punctuates your week.
