SWF Livestream: Leigh Sales and Lisa Millar, Storytellers

Next date: Saturday, 25 May 2024 | 02:00 PM to 03:00 PM

Veteran journalists shine a spotlight on the craft of non-fiction

ABC legend Leigh Sales turns the spotlight on the best in the business in Storytellers:Questions, Answers and the Craft of Journalism.

Leigh is joined in conversation by fellow legend Lisa Millar, whose own book, Muster Dogs, provides an insight into the craft of non-fiction writing.

With a combined 65 years in journalism, the co-hosts of last year’s hit Newsreader podcast, unpack the craft of non-fiction writing and discuss the fine art of turning real life events into a compelling narrative. This session is for anyone who’s ever wondered how the news gets made.
