Sydney Writers' Festival
​May 3-6, 2018
The Sydney Writers' Festival is happening earlier than usual this year, and at a new venue (while those lovely wharves are refurbished). I'm delighted to have been asked to chair conversations with Ceridwen Dovey (about In the Garden of the Fugitives) and with Sarah Krasnostein (about The Trauma Cleaner), as well as a panel on "Why We Read" with Glory Edim, Tara Westover, Junot Díaz and Stuart Kells. You'll find full details of these three events – and links back to the rest of the program – here.



Ashley has participated in many writers' festivals and conferences over more than fifteen years and is available for lectures, workshops and other presentations and conversations. She is a skilled facilitator and regularly chairs sessions and conducts one-on-one conversations with writers about their work at festivals and other events in Australia and abroad. She also works with the Australian Writers' Mentoring Program.
