Capricorn Coast Writers Festival is write on track for 2021
When the first Capricorn Coast Writers Festival launched in 2019, they had no idea how well-timed their biennial schedule would be.

Writers’ workshops are back!
We may have to wait til 2021 for the festival itself, but the team are also offering workshops in just a few weeks.
Join local multi-award-winning author Amy Andrews as she takes you through her workshop, Romance Writing Elements 101 - put a girl in it.
Giving your characters a romantic love interest adds another dimension to their personality and another layer to your writing. It also gives your readers a chance to see your characters personalities in a different light - good or bad.
Amy will take you through how to introduce romantic elements onto the page and into your stories at her workshop on Saturday 29 August 2020 from 9am - 1pm. Keep an eye on the Capricorn Coast Writers Festival on Facebook for more details.
The inaugral Capricorn Coast Writers Festival is bringing together the region’s writers, wannabe wordsmiths, book nerds and literature lovers on May 31 to June 2 in Yeppoon.
