Watch out for the Booklovers Festival program

The Booklovers Festival 2017 will run from July 15-29, and is a feast for those of us who love books and reading. From Jane Austen costumes to author talks and a day for debut authors, there is something to interest everyone. For writers there are practical workshops on getting published, sense of place, illustrating and writing for children. The Alan Marshall short story competition winner will be announced at the Literary Nillumbik finale on July 29. So watch for the program and get involved!
