Preparing for The Festival of Romance – this Saturday
November 5, 2013
Hurrah! It’s almost Festival of Romance Time – I’ve got my Awards Ball dress(es), booked a hair/nails etc pampering session to try and make myself presentable and persuaded Mr Bennet, my OH, to keep me company for the weekend.
If you live in or near Bedford, do come along. There is a fantastic programme of romantic literature themed events starting on November 8th (Friday) evening and continuing until November 10th (Sunday) afternoon.
The Festival is for readers, writers and publishing people. If you want to meet some of your favourite romance and women’s fiction authors, get books signed for Xmas gifts, find out how to get your own work published – or just pick up some writing tips – then book your ticket HERE now because some of the events are selling out.
There are also many free events, taking place all over Bedford town centre and I’ll be at:
10.30am – I’m taking part in the Coffee & Cake morning at The Lane and reading from It Happened One Night which has been shortlisted for Reader Award for Best Ebook.
1pm – Authors Q&A session with 2012 Festival award winners Rowan Coleman, Christina Courtena, Nicola May and Fiona Harper
So, now I’m off out for a run – in the rain – not linked at all to the party frock, of course…
