Writers on the Road 2022

Byron Writers Festival is taking its regional touring program Writers on the Road out west this winter, to Dorrigo, Armidale, Glen Innes, Tenterfield and Kyogle. Gather around the literary fire with acclaimed authors Jane Caro, Huda ‘The Goddess’ Fadlelmawla, Nigel Featherstone, and Mirandi Riwoe. They hit the road in the week leading up to the annual Byron Writers Festival.
“Sharing our stories has held the northern NSW community together through some pretty tough times over the past two years. Writers on the Road is a wonderful opportunity for readers in western towns to meet and hear from authors appearing at the Byron Writers Festival. The program offers people in the regions a taste of the festival experience. This year there is something for everyone including lovers of fiction, poetry and big ideas.” — Zoe Pollock, Artistic Director
