21st - 30th August
Coming up this month is the Melbourne Writers Festival. You won't want to miss the series of professional workshops and masterclasses including:
The Past is Not Dead: Historical Novels in Contemporary Literature – a masterclass with John Boyne (UK)
How to write GOOD fiction; From First Draft to Last – a masterclass with M J Hyland (UK/Aus)
Writing Non Fiction: From Choosing a Subject to Finding a Publisher – a workshop with Stephen Miller (USA)
Even if you're not a writer there are plenty of great events including the Big Ideas series at RMIT. Sessions include:
Does the end justify the means? with David Kilcullen (counterinsurgency expert) and Julian Burnside (barrister and human rights advocate)
Life, the Universe and Nothing with Theoretical Physicist Lawrence M Krauss who will discuss future of the Universe itself.
The festival is jam-packed so check out the official MWF website for the program of events.
Cheers, Maryanne
