At 9:30am on Wednesday April 10, at the Ayr Branch of the Burdekin Library, six Burdekin writers got ready to share their words with the public. After a brief introduction and Welcome to Country, the writers presented poems and stories. From tales of troubled teens, to glowing babies, from the torments of green frogs to a Bigfoot in need of a little help, from Antarctica to Alva beach, the stories took us far from the Burdekin and our lives, and then brought us right back home.
The Burdekin Creative Writers Anthology is available to read in the local history section, or there is one copy available to borrow from the Ayr branch of the Burdekin Library. In the future there will be a copy available at the Home Hill Branch.
Both the Burdekin Creative Writers and Night Writers groups would like to thank the Burdekin Library for hosting this event, and we look forward to the planned Showcase at the Home Hill Branch on Wednesday July 12 at 10:30am.
