A COUPLE OF ANNOUNCEMENTS

First of all - Victoria Howard and I are running an afternoon 'crash course' in writing a book in Barnsley on Sunday 17th June 2pm -5pm
Both of us will give a presentation, there will be a half-time afternoon tea, plenty of time for Q & As and our latest books will be available to buy.

We've both done our course on a few occasions and they've gone down very well, so we're joining forces.  Sometimes you just need a kick up the backside to get started - and this is what we hope to give you :)
We will also tell you:
'From idea to manuscript' - how to develop ideas and characters for your novel
How to make your novel flow
How to plot
How to approach an agent
What NOT to do
The importance of dialogue
 The importance of male protagonists in Romantic Suspense Novels 
...plus SO MUCH more.  We intend to send you home with lots of pointers, some supporting literature and being raring to go.
The Holiday Inn does wonderful Sunday carveries and pub lunches so if you wanted to make a full afternoon of it - or night - stay for a meal or a drink too.
The afternoon will run - approximately - like this
1.30pm - arrive early if you want to catch us for an early book sale
2pm - I'll be talking for an hour with a powerpoint presentation
3.15pm - break for afternoon tea and cakes and a general mingle
3.45pm - Victoria Howard will present
4.45pm - Q & As  
5.00pm - book signings
So hope you can join us.  Places are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.  We won't be issuing tickets but you will be given a booking number.
Kindest
Milly & Victoria
