Edoardo Crismani has been awarded the 2023 Boundless Indigenous Writer’s Mentorship for Finding Billy Brown, a fast-paced story about an AFL player who is hit by a car, only to wake up in the 1930s, where he meets his boxer great-grandfather.

Judi Morison has won the 2022 Boundless Mentorship for her family saga, When Grandmothers Speak, set in Queensland and northern NSW in the 1950s.

“Boundless is a festival that celebrates our interconnectedness, amplifies our unique voices, brings us together through the power of words.”

We asked the curators a couple of questions before the festival, to provide you with a chance to get to know them and their work better.

Boundless, Australia’s leading festival of Indigenous and culturally diverse Australian writers, will be presented online, 30 October – 1 November.
