Author talk at Mere Green library

Each of my author talks is unique in the way it pans out as I don't learn lines or use script cards - I go with the flow and where the audiences' interest takes me. I never know whether the attendees are avid Erin Green readers, book readers or aspiring authors, so I try to cater for everyone. 

Today's author talk at Mere Green library was no different. I had an audience of 17 guests who were attentive and enthusiastic to hear details of my publication journey from 'secret writer to published author'.

The topics covered were:

Secret writer, July 1994, Noddy Holder, Previous jobs, Kate Fforde, Introverts, Classic books, Ghost writers, Chasing dreams
Girl on a train, Library visits as a child, Shetland, Publishing contracts, Vanity press, A million published words, Post-it notes, Beatrix Potter & watercolours, Writing retreats, Debut novels, Village life, Euston station, Daphne du Maurier, 80/20 concept
Inspiration sources, Parents & background, Brixham, Being brave, A room of one's own, Austen, Bronte and Dickens, What if?
