The Australian Society of Authors National Congress

I'll be heading off to the National Writers Congress held in Sydney from Thursday 17 October to Saturday 19 October this year. The Congress is the first held by the Australian Society of Authors. It will explore the changing landscape for writers and will discuss ideas and answers to guide the future of authorship in Australia.

There is an illustrious line-up of authors and industry professionals speaking, including a plenary addresses by Anna Funder, author of All that I Am, winner of the 2012 Miles Franklin Literary Award, and Tom Keneally winner of the Booker Prize for Schindler's Arc, and of many other literary prizes. Take a look at the links provided. Would love to see you there!
