Essex Book Festival
“Essex Book Festival comes to Essex libraries
Throughout the month of June, Essex Libraries will be hosting thirteen author events for the Essex Book Festival . They will be welcoming a mixture of new and familiar authors, such as Lindsey Davis, Julia Jones and Samuel Fisher.
They’re also bringing back their ever-popular Essex Authors Day. This is a great opportunity for aspiring and established writers to learn, improve their skills, share knowledge and experiences – and discover something new! Pick up writing tips and inspiration from a wide range of workshops led by experienced authors, editors and publishers; join in with or listen to our popular Writers’ Slam or wander the Book Fair for networking opportunities. Entry to the event, Book Fair and Writers’ Slam is free. Microphone slots at the Writers’ Slam and workshop places must be booked in advance. There’s no charge to participate in the Writers’ Slam but tickets for the workshops cost £6 per person.
As well as events for adults, this year there is an amazing programme of events for the Family Fun Day on Saturday 18 June.
