Join Hannah Kent for this informal masterclass to ask questions about her craft. How does she approach writing? What does her research process look like? This Q&A format will allow you to find out more about her writing life and receive unvarnished sage advice relevant for your own work. Come along with the questions you want to ask to make the most of the session. This is a rare chance to really understand what it takes to complete a novel or memoir and tread the possible path to publication.  This session will be moderated by writer, literary critic and former CWF Artistic Director, Beejay Silcox.

Hannah Kent's first novel, the award-winning bestseller Burial Rites, has been translated into over 30 languages and is being adapted for film. Her novels The Good People and Devotion, have also been widely translated, shortlisted for numerous awards and are being adapted for film. Her original feature film, Run Rabbit Run, premiered at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival. Her latest book is Always Home, Always Homesick. Hannah is also the co-founder of Kill Your Darlings. She lives and works on Peramangk and Kaurna country.
