What a writer’s and reader’s delight it will be to celebrate great authors and chilling reads in one of my favourite parts of the world. Tasmania – the people, the food, the coffee, the hospitality – and good crime novels are a delicious fit. I would kill to be at the Terror Australis Festival, but thankfully I was invited so I won’t need to.
The program is stuffed full with panel sessions, workshops, and even a murder mystery party set in 1920s Cairo.
Panellists include:
Kerry Greenwood, creator of Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries
Tara Moss, author of the Mak Vanderwall PI series
Angela Meyer, Head Publisher Bonnier Australia and author of A Superior Spectre
Shamini Flint, author of the Inspector Singh Mysteries
And many more!
Keen to get your work in front of publishers? There’s a Pitch To A Publisher event on Friday 1st of November.
According to the Terror Australis website
Spend the morning honing your pitch to a publisher or agent with award-winning author Jack Heath, the creator of Ready, Set, Pitch!, followed by an afternoon of pitching to three Australian publishers for instant industry feedback.
Your publishers include Lindy Cameron, CEO of Clan Destine Press, Lex Hirst, Publisher at Pantera Press and Angela Meyer, Publisher at Echo Publishing, Bonnier Zaffre.
