Meet a Fantasy Author

Fantasy author Sam Woodgarth is coming to the Tablelands to talk about her books — the DragonSkin Series, The Curse of Argendarria, and The Children of Solra.

This is a great opportunity to meet this accomplished author and listen as she shares insights into writing and publishing, and provides support to local authors.

Sam is a retired teacher who spends her days wrangling cats and talking to imaginary friends.

‘I was devastated when I realised reality didn’t match the fictional worlds I read about so I created my own where the good guys always win and the bad guys get their just desserts.

‘I believe in courage, honour and wisdom, and refuse to accept a world where fear, selfishness and idiocy rule the day.

‘I’m all about belonging and compassion, and think we’re one step closer to creating a better world if we can imagine a place where gender, religion, ethnicity and age are accepted without question.

‘I’m really looking forward to visiting the Tablelands and having the opportunity to connect and inspire current and prospective authors,’ she said.
