T
he peninsula will again be buzzing with creatives and lovers of literature with another Words on the Waves Writers’ Festival. The festival is returning for its second year, with a main program at Umina from June 3 to 6. Although the program is still to be revealed as we go to print, if the lead-up events are anything to go by we can expect another stellar line-up. We already know that best-selling author Heather Morris (The Tattooist of Auschwitz) will be the star guest at a literary lunch in Pearl Beach (March 5), while applauded novelist Graeme Simsion (The Rosie Project) will share his writing wisdom at a workshop (March 6) in the same suburb. A few weeks later, award-winning journalist and author Jane Caro AM (The Mother) will be at Words at Wagstaffe (March 26), in partnership with The Bouddi Society.
