Greenhouse Gathering (in person and online) - with Susannah McFarlane and Kris Argall

Come along to Greenhouse Gatherings to hear from interesting speakers and be supported by our group of Christian women

Tuesday, 6 Feb 2024 7:00pm - 8:30pm AEDT

In-person participants at the August 2022 Greenhouse Gathering

February Guest Speakers - Susannah McFarlane and Kris Argall, on all things publishing!

Have you written a book, but you have no idea where to start when it comes to getting it published? Or you have an idea for a book, and would love to get some great advice on whether it’s worth writing? Or you’re just interested in learning more about how the publishing industry works, behind the scenes? At our first Greenhouse event for 2024, you’ll have an opportunity to meet two women working at Acorn Press, Head of Publishing Susannah McFarlane and Managing and Commissioning Editor Kris Argall. They will share their experience about how to go from an idea to a published book, and answer any questions you have about the process. This is an amazing opportunity to connect directly with the publishers – an event not to be missed!

You’ll also have a chance to connect with other Christian women, enjoy some delicious food, and hear more about what The Greenhouse has to offer to women in different industries, workplaces, churches and stages of life. We’d love to have you join us!

Can’t make it in person? Join us online! We’d love you to share in the experience.
