Melbourne Writers’ Festival
Here’s my schedule for the Melbourne Writers’ Festival, which I’m looking forward to greatly. It’s always a superb occasion with so much to see and do. Hope to see you all there.
Making Magic with Michael Pryor – Saturday 24 August 2013 at 2.30 pm.
‘Create complex, believable worlds for your next fantastic adventure story and come away with strategies, ideas and inspiration for your own writing. Michael Pryor has more than 25 published novels and is an experienced guide in the world of fantasy fiction.
Suitable for children aged 8 to 12.‘
Science Fiction, Science Fact – Wednesday 28 August 2013 at 12.30 pm
‘Scott Westerfeld and Michael Pryor talk about the inventions and ideas first put forward in fiction, later proved to be fact – or wildly off the mark. Who is the better guide: scientist or novelist? Or does the future rely on both?’
