Yarra Plenty Regional Library
This event is part of the 11th Annual Booklovers Festival
Where do creative ideas come from? How do you keep drafting when it seems like there’s no end in sight? What is it like to take a small kernel of an idea and watch it grow into a novel that is shortlisted for the Miles Franklin Award? Join award-winning author Favel Parrett for an intimate conversation and writer’s advice. She will discuss creativity and her work, including her new novel There was Still Love. Refreshments provided.
