Details of my 2026 Australian national book tour coming soon!

The cover of the book by Holly Ringland features an abstract, colorful, swirling background with three black and white birds sitting on a branch in the center. The title is in large white font across the top, and the author's name is at the bottom.

I also speak at festivals, conferences, bookshops and literary events about fiction, creativity, nature, place, adaptation, transformation, courage, and connection.

β€œThere are few people in the literary world like Holly Ringland. Over years of curating events and interviewing authors from around the world β€” from Margaret Atwood and Colum McCann to Robyn Davidson and many others β€” I’ve witnessed countless ways audiences connect with writers. What happens between Holly and her audiences is something entirely her own: generous, moving and rare. What she creates and offers is a cultural force for good.”
— Michaela Kalowski, Literary Festival interlocutor
β€œThe Holly Ringland Effect is real. Holly has that star power that can transform and transfix a room, leaving a lasting impression on audiences well beyond the end of the book-signing line. When Holly steps onto the stage, she lights it up with her boundless joy, honesty and divine feminine energy. They delight in her words – they laugh, cry happy tears, and breathe in unison with her.”
— Sian Baker, Artistic Director, Margaret River Readers’ and Writers’ Festival
