Still buzzing from the amazing festival last weekend. We had an incredible line-up: Serena Patel, teaching us about writing funny, Alex Wharton, the Welsh Children's Laureate sharing the joy and fun of poetry, Holly Bourne giving wisdom around the sensitivity and truth needed when writing for teenagers, Alysoun Owen sharing incredibly insight into Children's Publishing, after 30 years in the business, Hannah Gold talking about her journey, how she writes and the importance of self-belief, Rikin Parekh telling his illustrator story, Sandra A Agard bringing the love of storytelling into the festival, Andrew Wright teaching us how to be #neuroninjas, Charlotte Colwill and Julia Churchill advising on pitching and everything to do with the role of an agent. To finish we had the raffle where three amazing prizes were given out live. It was incredible and I will try to share photos if I can, but in the meantime save the date for next year: 22 & 23 March 2025. All info about W&A and their events, including the festival, can be found on their website: https://www.writersandartists.co.uk/
