Sydney Writers' Festival

May 6th 2008 04:58
It's here! The Sydney Writers' Festival is on again from 19 May to 25 May!

I always find the Writers' Festival a great inspiration to me. Two years ago I attended my first festival workshop with Claire Scobie on Travel Writing and that was the beginning of my writing career. I found her workshop very practical and involving, and it's always great to talk to like minded writers about things you write about and how you write.

Well this year as I am still studying my postgrad in Writing, there are a few events and talks that I really want to attend. I just hope I will have time!


So fellow writers - I hope you enjoy this wonderful event!

Hmmm, I should take some college writing classes and spoil my natural tendency to abuse the English language back to the stone ages; it's a talent I recognize and fully appreciate, Amy.

Hopefully, the event will be a wonderful adventure for yourself and fellow revelers; as for me, I'll just set at home and mope about, languishing in the pain pool of my self pity, sigh.

Hahahaha, do have a wonderful time Amy, I'll go for a walk with Tisha n Medford and share pictures with you when it's over.

The Sydney Writer's Festival was pretty good. I went to two talks - one on creating successful, unlikeable characters in fiction and one on Australian children's books, and they were both great.

I found it annoying that the Writer's Festival came and went with hardly a stir, though, while the Film Festival was spruiked in every newspaper and magazine, and on TV.

As if writing isn't way more important than film
