The Fifth Anniversary Event May 8th 2010
Since our launch in May 2005, The Write Fantastic's diary has seen over 60 engagements, ranging from library and bookshop events, talks to local writers' groups and contributions to literary festivals to teaching creative writing.
We've found readers' appetite and enthusiasm for fantasy fiction is boundless, from epic tales of sword and sorcery to gritty urban myth. It's been our pleasure to help make sure that no one is missing out on all the wonderful reading currently on offer.
To celebrate TWF's fifth year, we're welcoming Kari Sperring, Ian Whates, Freda Warrington and Liz Williams to the team and holding our first day event, at the Jacqueline Du Pré Building, St Hilda's College, Oxford on May 8th 2010.
We're inviting friends and colleagues to share their insights and recommendations in a wide-ranging programme. Our author guests are Stephen Deas, Ben Jeapes, Geoff Ryman, Mike Shevdon and Ian Watson. We'll also be joined by David Moore of Solaris Books, Oxford's very own SF&F publisher, who'll be offering his editorial perspective.
The day will also see the launch of TWF's anniversary anthology of original stories.
Check back for updates as details of the day are finalised!
