General Information
When and where does the festival take place?
The Emerging Writers’ Festival (EWF) takes place annually both online and on the ground in Naarm/Melbourne (as well as a few Interstate and even International events).
Where can I find EWF’s full program?
Right here on the website!
How do I stay in the loop during the festival?
Every few days throughout the festival, we’ll send out an eNews sent straight to your inbox filled with information on the events and projects you can get involved with.
Make sure you sign up to get these eNews so we can keep in touch during EWF.
We’ll also be chatting to festival attendees (that’s you!) through social media, so make sure you’re our mate on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
Can I chat to EWF’s community during the festival?
Yes, Discord is where a lot of the daily conversations will take place between the attendees during EWF. It’ll essentially be a free reign group chat between our EWF friends while the festival is on. Join our general chat and make sure you read our Community Guidelines on our Discord as the chat won’t be monitored 24/7, but we welcome you to use it as a space to network, chat about the events and connect with a community of like-minded digital storytelling champs.
What is the National Writers’ Conference (NWC)?
The National Writers’ Conference is the centrepiece of the EWF. It’s the place to be for emerging writers who are hungry to hear from leaders in the field, develop their skills, meet their peers and forge connections within the industry.
Check back in 2024 to see the latest NWC program.
