Today, Saturday October 11th, I’ll be at Foyles bookshop Bristol for the Books Are My Bag event co-hosted by Southville Writers and Bristol Women Writers. It’s on from 2 till 7pm and promises to be a really fun, informative afternoon of literary riches.

Fancy coming along? Writers taking part include Jo Reed, Ali Bacon, Mike Manson, Nina Milton, Kevlin Henney and Amy Morse. There will be readings of poetry, flash fiction and short stories, plus pop-up workshops, writing surgeries and masses of opportunities to pick up some ideas and inspiration on how to further your writing career, or simply what to read next.

It will also be a great chance to meet some really interesting Bristol-based writers – I’m looking forward to finding out what self-publisher extraordinaire Amy Morse has been up to since her guest post for SkyLightRain.com.

Tickets are free – just register on the Foyles website to get yours.

Books Are My Bag is from 2-7pm on Sat October 11th at Foyles bookshop in Quakers Friars, Bristol.
