Writing the Future

A Speculate Prize in-conversation, presented by RMIT Culture in partnership with RMIT Writing & Publishing

In this intimate salon event speculative fiction writers Kate Mildenhall (Skylarking, The Mother Fault) and Eugen Bacon (Road to Woop Woop , Danged Black Thing) explore the expansive possibilities of literature in the context of our rapidly changing world with RMIT's Rose Michael (The Asking Game, The Art of Navigation) and winner of the inaugural Speculate Prize Dominic Amerena. Together, they will discuss how non-realist writing has the potential to imagine other worlds and other realities and to better understand our own.

This RMIT Culture Literature & Ideas Salon celebrates the inaugural Speculate Prize, presented in partnership with Giramondo Publishing and RMIT Writing & Publishing, sponsored by Whispir and supported by the Speculate Literary Festival.
