How the Future Looks Now: How We Write the Future

Join the non/fictionLab for its monthly series of public online forums, How the Future Looks Now. This series brings together writers and other creative artists, industry leaders and academics, to discuss how the future looks now for our artforms, industries and communities.

In this speculative showcase, long-form fiction writers respond to the question ‘What is the role of non-realist works?’ referring to their own novel practice. 

Convened by Rose Michael, Lecturer, RMIT Writing and Publishing, and Deanne Sheldon-Collins, Co-Director of Speculate and Program Officer at Writers Victoria. Panellists include Eugen Bacon, Jane Rawson, James Bradley, Catherine McKinnon, and Ellen van Neerven. 

Presented in association with Speculate, the Victorian Speculative Writers Festival. The non/fictionLab is supported by Writing and Publishing at RMIT.
