Starting from: $5.00

Join us at Writing NSW for Talking Writing: Debut Authors and hear Samantha W. L. Lee (Bound), Jessy Wu (Good Intentions) and Glenn Orgias (Teeth Kicker) discuss the development of their writing practice, the pathways that led them to publication and the realities of being a debut author.

From the sometimes-gruelling submission process to editing pitfalls, sparkling book launches and everything in-between, don’t miss your chance to hear these three brilliant authors chat about the highs and lows of being a first-time author and what they wish they’d known before they got published.

It's an evening of conversation and connection. Refreshments will be available from 6pm, as well as a chance to meet other writers before the panel. The panel will take place from 6:30pm sharp.
