Another East Midlands (UK) Writing Event


(2011-01-12)

 Notice from Alex Davies about another Writing Event in the East Midlands UK:

Alt.Fiction is proud to present its first residential writing weekend – an ideal opportunity for writers of science fiction, fantasy and horror to get away from it all, meet and work with like-minded people and enjoy workshops and talks with established authors in the field. Offering workshops, feedback sessions and expert advice, these weekends are sure to both inform and inspire.

 

Winter Writing Weekend, 25th-27th February

Guest Speakers:
George Mann - author of the Newbury and Hobbes novels & Ghosts of Manhattan
Sarah Pinborough - horror, thriller and young adult novelist, author of A Matter of Blood and The Language of Dying

Venue: Diamond House, South Leverton (near Retford), DN22 0BX

 

Located close to both Lincoln and Sheffield, Diamond House is a Grade II listed country house in the heart of the Nottinghamshire countryside.

www.diamondhouse.org.uk

 

The Winter Writing Weekend costs just £180, including two nights’ accommodation, all meals and soft drinks, plus a full programme of writing activities throughout Saturday and Sunday featuring two guest authors.

 

To book your place, or for any enquiries, email alt.fiction@writingeastmidlands.co.uk

 

A £90 deposit is required to confirm your place, with a further £90 to be paid at least one week before the event. Deposits are non-refundable except in case of event cancellation. No refunds will be given in case of any changes to guest authors, or in the event of participants being unable to attend for any reason.
