Welcome to the 2010 Rosalie Writers Festival

It seems word has got around about the Rosalie Writers Festival. We have so many authors wanting to be involved that we are going to be hard-pressed to fit them all into three days!

So the 2010 Festival is set to be the biggest and best yet. Several of our favourite authors are returning, and there will be a whole heap of new ones bringing new books, new ideas and lots of inspiration.

The theme is Inside Out. We see writing as a way to get the inside of you out, to express your inner self, to turnĀ  your imagination inside out and upside down. Look forward to a three-day rollercoaster of words.

The full list of this year’s presenters now appears on our Presenters page. More info will be added to this over the next few weeks. In the meantime, send us your comments and ideas, below.

    Hi everyone,
    Just wanted to say thank you for having me at the Rosalie Writers Festival today.
    I had a great time with the year sevens, who had some brilliant ideas for their own magazines – from the titles, to the content and the design.
    I think magazine editors should regularly go out to pick the brains of primary school students – we’d never run out of material!
    I look forward to seeing Sweet, Pixie, 6th Gear, FabYouLe$$ and B.A.B.E, just to name a few, on the shelves in the future.
    Well done to you all,
    Julie
