Happy Christmas from the Foreword Festival team!
We had a great day on Saturday at Festive Foreword, our Christmas Book Fair. 13 local authors shared their books and literary goodies with the readers of Bury St Edmunds, who supported us in spite of the terrible weather!
A huge thank you to everyone who came to the event, chatted to our authors, and bought books and gifts. It was lovely to meet you!
Our next book fair, Love Your Local Authors, is taking place at the Constitutional Club on Guildhall Street on February 11th. Come along and treat yourself – and the bookworm in your life – to signed editions, postcards, and unique literary goodies. There will be a licensed bar from midday, lots of warm and comfy seating – and entry to the event is FREE!
See you there …
We are delighted to announce the Foreword Festival’s first official author panel!
We’re celebrating Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Horror with fantasy author Bex Hogan, horror author Josh Winning, and sci-fi authors Matt Adcock and Rachel Churcher.
The panel will be sharing their experiences of writing genre fiction, creating imaginary places, and shaping other-worldly stories at Shuffle – The Board Game Café on Sunday 8th October at 11am. There will be an opportunity to ask questions, and all the authors will be signing copies of their books after the panel at other festival venues.
Bex Hogan and Josh Winning will be signing at the Buttermarket branch of Waterstones from 12.15, and Matt Adcock and Rachel Churcher will be appearing at the Foreword Festival fringe book fair at the Guildhall from 12.30.
Tickets are £5, and places are limited. The panel will be suitable for ages 15+. Under 15s will be admitted with a ticket, but only if accompanied by a paying adult.
See you there!
