Event Recap / Talking Writing: Rom Coms


Rom com lovers from far and wide joined us for an engrossing conversation between Clare Fletcher, Saman Shadand Penelope Janu, facilitated by Katharine Pollock.


Talking Writing is our regular themed writing event where we discuss the infinite possibilities of writing.

In our November Talking Writing event, the theme was Rom Coms, and Clare Fletcher (Five Bush Weddings), Saman Shad (The Matchmaker), and Penelope Janu (In at the Deep End), chatted with Writing NSW Program Manager and writer Katharine Pollock (Her Fidelity and the forthcoming Starry Eyed).

Rom-com writers and readers alike braved the rainy weather to sip on bubbly while listening to discussion about all that romantic comedy has to offer, including tropes, ‘spice’, positive representation, and the undeniable allure of Mr Darcy’s flexed hand in the 2005 Pride and Prejudice film.

It was a wonderful time of laughter, chats, and general rom-com appreciation!
