Where two rivers meet | Willy Lit Fest

Join me, Tony Birch, Harry Saddler and Meyer Eidelson at Willy Lit Fest next week for a seaside chat about our fave rivers.

The confluence of the Yarra and Maribyrnong rivers is of great ecological, psychogeographical and cultural significance—in particular to the Woi Wurrung and Boonwurrung Peoples of the Kulin Nation. Take an armchair journey along the river with Harry Saddler (A Clear Flowing Yarra), Meyer Eidelson (Melbourne Dreaming), Tony Birch (Ghost River) and Jinghua Qian (Underfoot).

Indelible City & Who Needs the ABC? | Willy Lit Fest

I’m presenting a couple of sessions at Willy Lit Fest next weekend: First, an in-conversation with writer and podcaster Louisa Lim (Indelible City) about resistance and heartbreak in Hong Kong, then a panel with academic Matthew Ricketson (Who Needs the ABC?) and broadcaster, comedian and commentator Sami Shah about the role of the ABC and the future of public broadcasting. So come west! You can also catch me at EWF’s Club Critique the day before.
