Adelaide Writers’ Week: Little Quirks and Grand Passions
Very excited to be appearing at Adelaide Writers’ Week for an interview session (hosted by the amazing Kristy Fairlamb!) at the 2021 festival. A dream come true!
Here is the event write up:
Poppy Nwosu’s quick-witted romantic comedies, Making Friends with Alice Dyson and Taking Down Evelyn Tait, romp through friendship and romance, with pitfalls cleared and life lessons learned along the way. Her delightfully quirky heroines ultimately embrace who they are – from little quirks like being captured viral-video-dancing with the school troublemaker, to grand passions like an obsession with music and tomato growing.
Join Poppy Nwosu as she talks about stories, romance, and the importance of embracing and valuing who you really are … even if that person is kind of weird.
Poppy Nwosu is an author of young adult fiction. Her debut novel, Making Friends with Alice Dyson, was shortlisted for the 2018 Adelaide Festival Unpublished Manuscript Award, and the Readings Young Adult Book Prize 2019. Poppy’s second novel, Taking Down Evelyn Tait, was published in April 2020.
