Here it be, click on this link to see the full timetable for the event as told by the bumph which arrived on my doormat today. Looks like there should be a few decent sessions and our benevolent host is taking part in two of them. Check the timetable for more details.



So, what will people be looking forward to??

**the timetable is still subject to change, so don't blame me if/when it does

Have a peek in the workshop section of the forum, there's quite a bit in there from the last workshop James held in Leicester. Talks a lot of sense does Mr James! Very Happy

I've read all that stuff...but there's a difference between reading somebody's recount of something and experiencing it for one's self...frankly, I'd far rather be party to the latter in this situation...Razz

A good day was had. Thoroughly enjoyed James' session, excellent reading from Shout.

The horror session with Sarah Pinborough, Mark Morris and Tim Lebbon was fun and I want to read some of their stuff now (even if they cunningly tried to confuse everyone by not admitting to who was who, it worked as well as one of Baldrick's cunning plans...)

The day was rounded off by Iain Banks doing a reading and answering questions, have to say he was brilliantly entertaining.

If you get the chance to go next year do, it's well worth it.

As always great to catch up with forum friends Very Happy

And to echo that... it was a great day, great to see everyone again, just sorry I didn't get chance to spend more time with y'all. One of those where I would get dragged off to lots of places: but I shouldn't complain!

Next year's event should be a goodie too.

Mark

Saddo? Not at all. Was a great day, really good seeing everyone again.
