Directions

Looking for quiet time and space where you can write uninterrupted? Join a supportive group of committed writers for two full days of fast-paced writing, and transport yourself into your next writing project! Please note that this event is members-only, and bookings are for the full weekend (Saturday 31 October - Sunday 1 November); priority bookings will be reserved for writers who can attend both days. Our biannual Weekend Writing Challenges raise money for the Queensland Writers Centre Fellowship & Access Fund, which supports writers from diverse backgrounds and financially disadvantaged situations to access programs and services. Donate any amount to the Fellowship & Access Fund with your booking or on the day, or break one of our word count goals for entries to our special prize draw. Prizes include Writer's Consult Workshop passes, Queensland Writers Centre and GenreCon merchandise, book giveaways and more. This is a free or pay-what-you-can weekend writing event for members of Queensland Writers Centre only; it will be held in person at Queensland Writers Centre, on Level 2 of the State Library of Queensland. Please note that this is a self-guided session, and not a workshop. It is suitable for all writers, and takes place over two days: Saturday 31 October (10:00am-4:00pm) and Sunday 1 November (10:00am-4:00pm). Consider becoming a member of Queensland Writers Centre ($89 / $69 concession) to save up to 30% across our Program of workshops, courses and events, and get access to members-only events including the Weekend Writing Challenge. Queensland Writers Centre membership includes a host of benefits: belonging to a vibrant community of Queensland writing; discounts of up to 30% across our Program, services, and competitions; a subscription to the quarterly WQ magazine; priority access to writing advice from our experienced team; recognition for your writing achievements in our Member Milestones; access to Writer's Consults, the Writer's Surgery program and other members-only services; and access to member benefits of other state writers' centres in the National Writers Centre Network.
