A great opportunity to meet fellow authors and to share your work with the group as well as your friends. Everyone welcome to come along.There will be space for six readers. plus some open mic slots for anyone who'd like to put their name in the hat. Message Christine for a slot. New readers are given priority.
Please read the notes below. This is to help you be focussed on your reading, to make the most of your time. Sounds like we may be teaching Grandma etc., but is very important.
1. All pieces must be 8 mins max. We allow ten mins total so if you have a pre-amble or bit of context this should be around 2 mins.
2. Read and time your piece at home. This helps you get a feeling for it and will give you confidence.
3. Choose your extract (if from novel or longer piece) wisely. Remember the audience will need to get into the piece quickly so use an extract that gives tone, shows genre and engages immediately)
4. To allow everyone a fair crack we will have to stop you if you go over ten mins max.
