About

Join best-selling authors as they share their stories of what it was like to see their novels be transformed into films and TV series. Hear firsthand how their stories evolve in the process, how much creative input the author has on the script, and discover the challenges and rewards of translating the story from the page for the screen.

Event takes place outdoors at Victoria University.
