Cadence Bell at Newcastle Writers Festival

What does the future of the arts look like in an AI-driven world? Cadance Bell, Danielle Binks, and John Fischetti delve into the big questions facing writers right now – from threats to intellectual property to the far-reaching implications of the recent Productivity Commission report. Expect a lively discussion about creativity, ethics, and what’s worth fighting for. Hosted by Amy Sambrooke.

Cadance Bell, Yumna Kassab, and Nick Milligan write genre-blending books that refuse neat labels. From hybrid fiction to experimental form, they speak to Nina Cullen about why crossing boundaries matters now, how risk drives storytelling, and what readers gain when literature slips free of expectation.
