The Australian Literature Review is touring mainland Australia bringing you insights from various locations around the country beyond the major events covered extensively elsewhere.
Expect anything from the ordinary to the extraordinary, chats with bestselling and award-winning authors in their hometowns, meeting small town and big city writing groups and gaining some insight into what they do, finding out how aspiring novelists are going about fulfiling their ambition, meet an agent or publicist and find out what they do, book launches, readings, or anything else relevant to fiction writing in Australia. Suggestions and invitations are welcome throughout Jan and Feb.
