Ambassadors and Early Bird tickets announced
Open to unpublished writers of adult fiction and adult narrative non-fiction.
On June 23 and 24, Australia’s largest gathering of emerging writers returns to the State Library of Victoria. A perfect mix of emerging and established speakers, this two-day conference covers craft, industry insights and networking for writers of all genres and forms. Early-bird tickets on sale now.
As an emerging writer, three of the most valuable things to aid in the development and creation of work are space, time and money. In 2018, the Emerging Writers’ Festival is thrilled to partner with State Library Victoria to present the inaugural Emerging Writers’ Fellowship.
Only 30 tickets available!
