BWF in the 'Burbs

Overview

Brisbane Writers Festival slots into the State Library of Queensland like a book being put back in its place on a shelf, however, the city's biggest, most central repository of the written word isn't the only place to have some fest fun. Yep, BWF in the 'Burbs is exactly what it sounds like.

From Indooroopilly to Carina and Wynnum to Michelton, a selection of festival guests will grace suburban libraries to tell the stories behind writing stories. Speakers include journalist Caroline Overton and Irish author Michael Collins — and they're just two of the 14 talented folks popping up around town.

This event is one of our five picks for Brisbane Writers Festival. Check out the whole list.
