First talk of 2014 and what a great audience
On Wednesday I gave my first speaking engagement for 2014 at Monks Brook U3A and what a lovely audience they were. Over a hundred people turned out to hear me talk about my method of writing and the DI Andy Horton crime series set in the Solent area on the South Coast of England in Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight. I talked about my method for developing plot lines and creating characters and signed copies of my crime novels.
There were plenty of questions from the audience including writing routines, first drafts and revisions, and what inspired me to write crime novels. You can read articles on all these subjects on my blog on my official website
U3As are self-help, self-managed lifelong learning co-operatives for older people no longer in full time work, providing opportunities for their members to share learning experiences in a wide range of interest groups and to pursue learning not for qualifications, but for fun. They are always a lovely audience and I'm honoured to have given so many talks to members of this great organisation. I have many more talks lined up at U3As and other groups in 2014.
