Writing WA has announced the launch of a Literary Coasters initiative to showcase the words of Western Australian writers. These eco-friendly coasters will be distributed across the state.
Extracts of work from eight published WA authors and poets will feature prominently on these eco-coasters, with an aim to inspire readers to engage with WA’s literary heritage in new and creative ways.
