Panel Hosting Training for Authors AND Others

Panel Hosting TraininG

(Festivals and Events)

I have developed a one-off hour-long individual online training session specifically for writers and others to help you learn how to host author interviews and panel discussion at writers festivals, libraries and other public events. 

 As a former ABC arts broadcaster, and the author of two memoirs ('Shy; a memoir' and 'Childless: a story of freedom and longing'), I’ve hosted dozens of panel discussions with published authors, on radio and at writers festivals and other public events.

I've also been interviewed many times about my own books, so I know first hand what kinds of questions help me to open up about my work.

It can be daunting, having to take charge of a complex live conversation with writers you might not know personally. I can offer you some simple tips to ensure both speakers and audience members have a great time.

Feel free to contact me if you'd like to book one of these sessions on Zoom.
