Aims and Objectives

Our aims and objectives include:

  • Promoting writing and reading by hosting readings, seminars, workshops, tours.

  • Running a writers' festival each year,  bringing the best authors in all genres to the region, as well as other writing professionals such as editors, publishers, agents.

  • Showcasing the work of local writers in our newsletter, on the website, and on CD, in anthologies and at major writers' festivals. We run regular writing groups and drop-in sessions where people can read their own works in progress, or listen to others.

  • Lobbying for improvements and developing new opportunities in the culture of writing in Australia through our membership of Litlink , the network of writers centres in NSW.
