Dear Members and Friends,
We know you're busy.
We know you're counting down to when you can down-tools and join your friends and family to make merry.
We know the joy of Christmas beckons.
Which is why we wanted to drop a short-but-sweet letter to say a few final things for 2024.
Thank You.
It's been a brilliant festival year to have shared with you, and if you attended the Tamar Valley Writers Festival in October, I'm sure you will agree that it was a memorable event that will be hard to top. But we will be working very hard to do just that when we have our next festival in 2026! Please keep an eye out for our Festival Friend member sign-up opportunity in the new year.
Events Incoming!
While 2025 isn't a festival year, we continue to be committed to bringing you a lineup of events that satiate your literary appetite, including our annual Book Week Trivia Night. To begin with, we will be supporting two wonderful book launches in partnership with Petrarch's Bookshop:
- Half Truth, by Nadia Mahjouri (from Hobart). February 19: Scroll below for more details and to book for this free event.
- Where the Birds Call Her Name, by Claire van Ryn (from Launceston). March 25: more details to come.
Merry Merry Christmas.
We wish you a wonderful Christmas, New Year and summer holiday season and hope you have oodles of rest and relaxation and, importantly, the opportunity to get stuck into your TBR pile.
With warmest regards,
Georgie Todman & Lyndon Riggall
Co-Presidents | Tamar Valley Writers Festival
