Richmond Literary Festival

Claire, Nathan and I

I was in London over the last couple of days and took part in Book Now, the Richmond-Upon-Thames Literary Festival, my last reading of 2009. It’s been a busy 7 months of travelling since THE HOUSE OF SPECIAL PURPOSE was published but it was nice to fit one last festival in before Christmas, particularly as I was reading once again with Claire Kilroy, at a festival programmed by an old friend, Nathan Hamilton, who was a student on the Creative Writing MA at the University of East Anglia during ‘04/’05, when I returned to my old uni as Writing Fellow.
