TOPIC: How I use history to bring my fiction writing to life.
Speakers: Paula Beavan
Paula J Beavan grew up in the Hunter Valley where her love of a reading and a good yarn inspired a desire to write. On discovering a family connection to one of the Hunter Valley first settlers she turned her hand to historical fiction.
