We have just opened two residencies – one for a woman writer who is a sole parent and the other for a First Nations writer. The residencies are open to local, regional and interstate writers, and provide space, time, mentorship + a $882.80 weekly stipend.

Saturday read #2. Not just a chance to try a Sound Of Music pun headline, the return of Do Re Mi - via Deborah Conway & Helen Carter - is timely & laced with historical & contemporary resonance. And some groove-rich pop songs. This interview explains all. https://t.co/gcMYvTeYPq

Bring it on! + add guitars, tequila, women of rock, mythology, power of sex, open convos about drug culture and the cultural authority of our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists. #disruptionsince2016

I see we've managed to move the needle at another writers festival. Byron Bay Writers Festival copping some content straight from @rrwf_ ... including a bunch of our speakers from previous years. Imitation, sincerest flattery, etc.
