I just wanted to post these photos of the workshop at Ashby Library last week as part of the M&B New Voices contest lead-up. As I said, the workshop was orignally fully booked but we managed to fit in another five extra people on the day. Some of the pics are a bit dark because of the way everyone was sitting against the window but from what I've heard, everyone had fun and learned a lot .
Thank you to everyone for coming.
Special thanks too to Emma the librarian who organised everything and made sure that it all ran wonderfully smoothly - so smoothly that no one left for almost an hour after the official closing date. Emma is already talking about inviting me back for another event - maybe for Valentine's Day so watch this space!
Other good news is that
The Return of the Stranger is now at #1 in the Amazon bestseller charts for Modern Romance - and, probably because of the New Voices Contest, the
12 Point Guide to Writing Romance is also selling pretty fast. Thank you to everyone who has bought a copy!
And talking of workshops - I think that there are still places available on the workshop in Haworth as part of the Bronte Society Festival of Women's Writing -
details here or
