Update: The entire program can be found in today’s The Age newspaper. My session is in there, but my author profile didn’t make it (although I think they did warn me that might happen). Now I just have to try and decide what other sessions I’d like to go to. Anyone else going? Who are you seeing?
Here’s the specific outline regarding my contribution to the MWF:
15 Minutes of Fame – in conjunction with the Emerging Writers’ Festival the MWF presents a short interview, reading and Q&A with one of the city’s newest literary talents*. Hosted by EWF Director David Ryding.
Date: 31 August 2008
Time: 8.30pm
Venue: Function Space, ACMI (Festival Club)
