West Berks library invites local authors to showcase their work

Calling local authors! Newbury library will be holding an event in November to bring together writers in the West Berks area who have had work published, giving them a platform where they can showcase their work.

The event will be a ‘marketplace’ where authors will be allocated space in the library, allowing them to promote their books and sell copies if they wish.

The proposed date is Saturday, November 26, and space will be limited to 30 authors on a first come, first served basis.

Lesser-known, possibly self-published, writers of any genre are welcome to apply for a place.

Any authors who are interested should contact acting libraries manager Karen Smith karen.smith@westberks.gov.uk

It promises to be an interesting event and a wonderful opportunity for library visitors to appreciate the breadth of local talent.
