Talks at Oswestry Library

Oswestry on the Welsh border is a beautiful town which I have got to know fairly well over the last few months, doing various author events within it's buildings. I am now preparing for two lunchtime talks in October.
13th October 12.30-1.30pm
Learning Lunchtime.
A Woman's Voice
Diary of Margery Blake
I will be looking at how women were treated in the Victorian era - no power, no voice, no rights. Why did we allow it? Has it changed much since?

31st October 12.30-1.30pm
The Role of the Female in the Supernatural
Echoes
A fun, light hearted look at women in the afterlife! What part do they play? From nuns, to little white ladies. From Banshee to famous queens. I explore the many women seen in ghostly form and explain the difference between ghost and spirit.

Book your place through Oswestry Library £3 and I shall also have my books to sell/sign.

I asked myself how I felt about these talks today, hence this blog. Giving talks is absolutely nerve-wracking - but it is something I love to do. Having been a Cruse Bereavement Care trainer for six years and teaching various workshops, about grief, to letting go of regrets, I miss teaching and imparting some knowledge. So, it's been awhile, but hopefully its like getting back on a bike... I fell off my bike!!!! :)
