THE BIRMINGHAM BOOK FESTIVAL...

Soon upon us, the Birmingham Book festival, and just to prove I'm not biased I have listed below every event and workshop that is occurring.

I shall be present at The Studio on the evening of Thursday the 11th at 7.00 for the Launch Event and Book Quiz, and also I shall be speaking at the Reader's Day on Sunday the 21st at 11.00 am in the Birmingham Conservatoire.
