Dorset County Council Library Service is hosting its first Readers’ & Writers’ Day on 10 March 2012 to celebrate the creativity of reading and writing. Titled Sharing the Passion, the day offers the opportunity to join authors Robert Goddard, Sophie Hannah, Lindsey Davis, Patrick Gale and Natasha Solomons to share the passion generated by talking about books and writing. There will be morning and afternoon creative writing workshops and book discussion sessions. The cost for the whole day (including lunch) is only £15, making it well worth spending a day in Sturminster Newton, Dorset. I’ve already booked my place (early bird bookings are £13 until 16 January) and I hope to see you at the event. Find further information here.

That sounds great, Gail! If I lived closer to Dorset, I’d be there!
Hi Helen – it’s a bit more than a day trip for you! If you’re still looking for recommendations to read in 2012, I could suggest Natasha Solomons’ Mr Rosenblum’s List as a quirky story that’s set in Dorset.
I’m booked too, Gail.
See you there!
I’m looking forward to it already!
That sounds like an interesting day out.
Hi Patsy – I’ll make a post in March and let you know how it goes.
Thank you for the information – I’ve just booked for March 10th. Geraldine
That’s great – let’s arrange to travel together.
Look forward to seeing you there, Geraldine. Happy New Year!
Looks like the 10 March will be quite a reunion!
