Join three writers in this practical small group session as they share the joys and perils of their writing lives.
How do they put themselves on the page? What do their characters end up meaning to them? Can they earn a crust? Why do they keep going?
Irma Gold (Shift), David Stavanger (The Drop Off) and Natasha Rai (An Onslaught of Light) will confess what this writing caper means to them, inspirations for their latest works, when they have felt exposed, and the love that keeps them going.
They will also read passages that mean the most to them from their latest works. Moderated by journalist and author of Troll Hunting, Ginger Gorman.
