Comedian, podcaster, and author Tanya Hennessey will be coming along to discuss her middle grade fiction series Stevie Louise. This is a free event, aimed at kids 7+. Books will be available to purchase on the day or can be purchased in advance from Books Plus Bathurst. Tanya will be signing books on the day during the meet and greet part of the event. This is a great opportunity for kids to meet an author and hear about the process of writing a book and developing unique, funny characters like Stevie Louise.

TANYA HENNESSY: SPOTLIGHT PLEASE, IT’S STEVIE LOUISE
Saturday 27 May, 11am
Bathurst Library
Meet Stevie Louise. She is an entrepreneur (that’s like a business person), an entertainer (obviously), and an extrovert on the inside (wait, is this a thing?). Stevie and the Brooke Street crew are hard-up for cash. Going viral doesn’t last forever, you know, and killer costumes are expensive. To keep their showbiz dream alive, the kids are competing in a local talent quest. But the competition is stiff (I mean, have you ever heard four goats sing acapella?), and Alex has a unicorn horn glued to his forehead for at least the next three weeks. It’s tough working under these conditions, but Stevie is up for any challenge to save Lunchbox Productions…
Join comedian, author and social media star Tanya Hennessy for a Q&A about her children’s middle grade fiction series Stevie Louise. Hear Tanya discuss all things junior fiction, writing and inspiration for her main character Stevie Louise Mason.
An exclusive live event for Bathurst Writers’ & Readers’ Festival.
