I have to say it's not every day that I attend a library and find I have a bookshelf to myself displaying my publications, but that happened today at Warwick! I was there to give an informal talk to their coffee morning participants about my books and my journey towards publication. I was thrilled when I found myself seated before 25 library users for the hour long session. They were a bright bubbly bunch which made the chat so easy as I explained my stumbling journey towards a book contract. They were so nice, they even laughed at my jokes! Anyhow, I managed to answer all their questions regards writers' block, juggling careers, the pressures of writing to deadlines and shared an insight regards character creation. At the end of the talk it was so lovely to see so many from the audience select one of my books from the shelf and take it home. I only hope they enjoy the book, enjoy their coffee coaster freebie from me and have a chuckle at some of my anecdotes. Check out the 'home' page to view the location of my next author talk.

You inspired me this morning, Erin. I'm speaking at the same event in June and thought I'd come along to get some tips :) Your talk was so entertaining and funny as well as informative, so now the pressure's on! How did you do that without notes? Also, I'm a secondary school English teacher turned writer, too, so that made it even more interesting. Thanks for coming along. Leave a Reply. |
