Trent Dalton and Frances Whiting are two of Queensland's most beloved writers, and both are intrinsically linked to The Courier-Mail.

Dalton was based at the newspaper's Bowen Hills office for 23 years and credits The Courier-Mail readers with giving him the strength and permission to share his story through Boy Swallows Universe. Whiting's fun and insightful weekly column has been a must-read for 27 years.

In Conversation with Trent Dalton will continue The Courier-Mail's proud and long-standing support of Brisbane Festival. For nearly a decade, our mastheads - The Courier-Mail, Sunday Mail, Qweekend and couriermail.com.au - have celebrated one of our city's truly spectacular events. We look forward to bringing the spirit of Brisbane Festival to our print and digital audience of more than 2.9 million people.
