This is a free writers' seminar with bestselling novelist, popular seminar leader and author of The Novel Project: A Step by Step Guide to your Novel, Memoir or Biography, author Graeme Simsion.

Graeme’s Rosie Project series has sold over six million copies in forty languages and won ABIA book of the year.

  • How to take control of your creativity
  • How to create credible, complex characters
  • How to structure your novel using proven storytelling principles
  • How to deal with crises and problems, including writer’s block
  • How to work with beta readers and editors
