Express Media and Inside a Dog present Leanne Hall in conversation with Adele Walsh, The State Library of Victoria’s Program Coordinator at the Centre for Youth Literature.

Leanne Hall is the author of two novels for young adults, the Text Prize-winning This Is Shyness (2010), and its sequel Queen of the Night (2012).

Leanne began her writing career with short stories, some of which have been published in Sleepers Almanac, Meanjin and Best Australian Stories. She currently works part-time as a children’s specialist in an independent bookstore, a job that fuels her passion for books and allows her time to write.

This workshop will be targeted at young and emerging writers. Educators and youth workers are welcome to attend.

This is a free event, but bookings are essential and strictly limited.

location: The Wheeler Centre, 1176 Little Lonsdale St, Melbourne
