List of Australian Writers’ Festivals 2022
Whether you’re looking for inspiration (or to be the inspiration as a speaker!) at a writers’ festival in Australia in 2022, here is a list of writing festivals so you can plan your year. And if you have a writers’ festival to add to this list, please send me the details.
And just a funny writerly thing you’ll notice … some festivals use the apostrophe (writers’) and some don’t (writers). Apparently if you know the rules you can break the rules 😉
