Now in its fourth year, the Kyogle Writer in Residence programme supports regionally-based writers to develop their manuscripts through the provision of accommodation, funding and a mentorship with an established author. Previous Writers in Residence have included Jarrah Dundler, Nadia Johansen and Charlotte O’Neill. This year our focus was on supporting a YA author with the development of their work.
This year KRAW is very excited to welcome our mentor Hayley Lawrence and our all-important Writer in Resident awardee. The recipient will be announced on May 26. The writer will spend two weeks in Kyogle working on their latest manuscript. Join us in welcoming them to our town, and find out what they have been working on.
