Words on the Waves, in conjunction with the Pearl Beach Progress Association, is launching a new one-day literary event called Words at Pearl.
The inaugural event will be held on Saturday, November 2, featuring author panels, in-conversation sessions and all things literary at the Pearl Beach Memorial Community Hall.
All the books you’ll hear about at Words at Pearls have something that ties them back to the author’s ‘real’ life.
Hear from John Brogden as his discusses his new book in which he interviews 15 suicide survivors and discover why James O’Loghlin‘s crime thriller is set near his holiday house on the Central Coast.
Join debut author panel and learn about Jessica Kirkness‘ childhood as a GODA – grandchild of deaf adults – listen to Lisa Kenway talk about how her psychological thriller was inspired by her work as an anaesthetist, Daniel Tamone talk about his book The Fists of the Father which is set in Western Sydney where Daniel grew up, and Deborah Pike on her funny and heartwarming debut, The Players.
What better way to end the day than with opera singer Katherine Wiles as she talks about life in the glorious chorus and shares hilarious stories of backstage antics?
The doors open at 9am with the event starting at 9.45am.
