There are two events for writers coming up in Salcombe, Devon. At the first participants will be talking about me (well, they’ll be discussing one of my early stories) and at the second they get to talk to me and Anne Rainbow. If you’re local to the area, or want to treat yourself to a weekend away, we’d love to see you there.

That must be very informative for writers - to discuss writing, editing, self-publishing and marketing.

I hope that's the case, Haddock.

I really wish I could join you! Look forward to hearing how it went.

My plan is to take part in other events in different areas, Ingrid, so maybe you'll be able to come to something else.
