Step into the gritty world of rural crime fiction with bestselling WA author Michael Trant, whose thrilling novels such as Wild Dogs, and Blood and Gold have redefined the rural crime genre. From rescuing a young man from certain execution to uncovering a sinister pattern of covered-up murders in the red dust of Western Australia, Michael’s stories will have you on the edge of your seat desperate for more.
In this immersive workshop, Michael will share how he transforms real-life grit into gripping fiction. Learn how to plot a murder that feels disturbingly plausible, build characters with complex motives, and use landscape as a silent accomplice in your crime narrative. Expect practical writing exercises, behind-the-scenes insights, and a few tales from the bush that are stranger than fiction.
Plus, Michael Trant will be available to sign books at the Dymocks pop-up stand in the Hall of Stars (Agricultural Hall) from 1:30PM – 2:00PM.
