Everyone likes a good day trip don’t they? Well, members of the New Writing North book groups have been invited to a special book-related day at the Sage in Gateshead.
As part of BBC Radio 3’s Free Thinking Festival, we (you and me!) have been invited to talk to the awesome Lionel Shriver (author of ‘We Need to Talk about Kevin’) about her new book A Perfectly Good Family.
The idea is that you can go along to the Sage on Saturday 24 October and there will be a reading plus Q+A, just like when Stella Duffy came to visit us last year.
Then, in November book group, we’ll talk about A Perfectly Good Family at Uncle Alberts in Middlesbrough.
Apply for free tickets here (go to the ‘book online’ section or call them to reserve)

ps – this is not a compulsary trip and if you don’t go it won’t affect the november book group, it’s just an optional extra 
So, yes, take a look at the updated reading list and get reading!
Many thanks for including me in your discussion at the Lionel Shriver event on Saturday – wasn’t she the business?
I loved meeting you all – what a fab group!
all the best,
Annie
