Join us for an exciting Time to Write Live Interview and writing Zoom session on Tuesday, April 8th at 7pm Sydney time with Paul Daley—one of Australia's most renowned authors, journalists, and essayists.
This is an exclusive opportunity to get insights into the mind of a writer whose work has captured the attention of readers and critics alike. Paul’s books have been finalists in major Australian literary awards, including the Prime Minister’s History Prize and the Manning Clark House Cultural Awards. A seasoned journalist, Paul has won Walkley Awards and earned accolades for his groundbreaking coverage on frontier violence and cultural amnesia.
In this live interview, we'll dive deep into the mysterious alchemy of storytelling—how characters and plot come together in his works. What comes first for Paul when writing a book: Plot or Character? How does he navigate the dithering that so many writers face before they sit down and start writing?
Paul’s much-anticipated novel, The Leap, is set to be released in August 2025. Described as a literary mystery, it explores the legacy of colonial racial violence and dispossession. We can’t wait to chat with Paul about the creative process behind this compelling narrative.
