I'm getting ready to set out for Oxford for the Write Fantastic Fifth Anniversary Event tomorrow (May 8th) at the Jacqueline du Pre Building, St Hilda's College, Oxford. We have a great programme and line-up of guests and it's going to be a lot of fun. It's now too late to pre-book, but there will be memberships available on the door from 10.00 am and things kick off at 10.30, with an panel on debut writers with Ian Whates, Mike Shevdon, Jenni Hill and me. You can find all the details here: https://www.thewritefantastic.com/anniversary.html

And we're having a book launch for our anthology Anniversaries: stories by the Write Fantastic, published by NewCon Press, at 4 pm. There are brand new stories from all the members -- Sarah Ash, Chaz Brenchley, Juliet McKenna, Jessica Rydill, Freda Warrington, Ian Whates, Liz Williams and me, plus an introduction by Stan Nichols. It's a very limited print run -- only 70 copies -- and some are already pre-sold, so if you want one, come along tomorrow or order from the NewCon Press website here:
