Why not head out to the pretty little goldfield town of Clunes in March for the Clunes Booktown Festival? The festival features many events and stalls are open to both publishers and independent authors. I am aware of at least two authors who regularly take a table at Clunes, with positive results.
“Growing steady since 2007, the festival has a theme each year so expect the town to be dressed for the occasion, with roaming street performers, live music and plenty of local beverages and baked and grown produce on offer.”
Just two hours by train from Melbourne.
