Twisted Tales

Last night I attended the Twisted Tales event at Waterstones in Liverpool One. They've been holding these events for a year but this was the first I've attended.

Go me or bad me or something of that flavour.

Met up with Simon Bestwick for a coffee (okay, I had a bottle of water because I was way too hyper) before heading into the event. There were readings by Nicholas Royle, Lisa Tuttle and Adam Nevill, a question and answer session and then a signing.

Picked up the House of Fear Anthology, The Silver Bough by Lisa Tuttle, The Ritual by Adam Nevill and Regicide by Nicholas Royle (which when I read the blurb on the back screamed 'I have to read this now' so I guess I'm shoving that one to the front of my towering to read pile which is actually rather neatly organised now).

Oh and I sat behind Ramsey Campbell during the event (yep, you read that right) and of course Simon being Simon (i.e. he knows everyone) he introduced me to Ramsey after the readings. I ran away rather quickly. Better that than subjecting him to a stream of incoherent nonsense.
