Overview

If you're attending a writers festival, here's something you probably already know: reading is one of life's great leisure-time pleasures. And, if you're attending Brisbane Writers Festival, you're probably feeling guilty about taking time out of your schedule for doing something you enjoy.

Listen, learn and then take the resulting insights back to your busy life.
