About this Event
Now that August is over, the new term begun, and Festival Season supposedly done, we’ve having a stripped-back Salon with just one guest. That said, Ricky Monahan Brown ticks many boxes as a Salon regular, a former Book Week Scotland special guest (2019) and a contributor to both our anthologies, Lost, Looking & Found and The Golden Hours.
Ricky’s latest book of short stories, TERMINAL, comes out this week, launching at Argonaut Books, so if you can’t be there please join us instead! This is what another former Salon guest, Cameron Wylie, has to say about it...
“Ricky Monahan Brown’s language has real pop and fizz. Tense, funny and original: these stories remind us what a good short story is.”
— Cameron Wylie, author of Is There a Pigeon in the Room?
As we all know, Festival Season isn’t really over: there are plenty of mini-festivals coming up so we’ll be talking about these, and sharing other news and notes of interest.
Once again we’ll be at The Outhouse, and after the usual drinks reception from 6.30, we’ll livestream the presentation on Zoom at 7pm, lasting around 30 minutes.
How it works...
6.30: Doors Open – drinks reception in the Function Room at the Outhouse
6.50: Open the Zoom meeting (details are emailed to all ticket-holders)
7.00: Welcome, and introduction to Ricky Monahan Brown
7.25: Coming Events and Notes of Interest
7.35: Further mingling and blether
It is free to register for all of our events. We invite donations for the glass of wine, or encourage people to buy us a coffee to help fund our work. If you can’t afford to donate, you are still welcome. Our two anthologies are on sale here, and books will be available to purchase on the night. We look forward to seeing you in person or in the zoom-room.
Accessibility Notice
Edinburgh Literary Salon is open to all those with an interest in all aspects of Literature, whether professional or personal, and to all parts of the industry: writers, publishers, booksellers etc. All are welcome, and events have free registration. While we aim to hold some events at accessible venues, our regular salon is in an upstairs room at The Outhouse. For this reason, we aim to livestream most events. If there is a problem accessing zoom, we will do what we can to assist. We strive to ensure adequate audibility, and straightforward registration. We invite positive feedback on how we can improve, even within our limitations as a non-funded organisation. We welcome open conversation.
