Brisbane?s writing scene is on the cusp of something big. Recent Brisbane-based successes have paved the way for a new model of viewing Brisbane?s writing scene ? not merely a springboard to brighter and better things interstate and overseas, but a location and culture to cultivate viable success.

Thanks: Joanna Coltman, Craig Bolland, Benjamin Law and, most importantly, all of our panelists and performers for their enthusiasm and dedication.
