SUMMARY:Closing Night Litfair: How Long is Forever?
DESCRIPTION:A word used in songs\, scripture\, and everyday language. ‘Forever’ carries a certain transcendence and comfort. Close out the festival by hearing writers’ relationships to the word — moments they wish could live on eternally\, to how they might live differently\, if our time here was endless.    \nTaking place within the majestic grounds of the Abbotsford Convent\, wander through stalls selling zines\, books\, and other handmade wares. Mingle with writers\, artists\, small press publishers and grassroots collectives.

SUMMARY:Unfinished Business: Writing Memory\, Place and Uncertainty
DESCRIPTION:Within so many searing works of fiction\, lies a sense of unfinished business. The stories\, silences\, and emotional residues that linger across generations\, relationships\, and landscapes. Drawing on Australian Gothic traditions\, join prize-nominated writer Shannon Benton to explore memory as something unstable and shape-shifting\, where ambiguity and atmosphere become powerful\, creative tools. Experiment with fragments\, uncertainty\, and emotional truth\, while considering how place\, longing\, and inherited narratives shape the stories we tell.   \n\n\n\nPresented in partnership with
