Big Sky pulls big crowds

A highlight of the Geraldton cultural calendar, the annual Big Sky Writers Festival goes from strength to strength. Now in it’s sixth year, the Festival draws on a variety of Western Australian and Australian writers to provide locals with a taste of books and writing across the spectrum.

Fremantle Press was well represented at this year’s Festival by authors AJ Betts, Natasha Lester, Barbara Temperton and Glyn Parry. The launch of Natasha’s novel, What is Left Over, After, was one of the best attended events at the Festival, and sessions with AJ on the ‘Y Generation’ and with Natasha and AJ on ‘the road to publication‘ were keenly received.
