Ryedale Book Festival

Cathy, Lindsay and Maggie had a very enjoyable day in Malton.

Among the highlights was Lunch with Three Authors, the authors in question being novelists Fiona Shaw and Andy Seed and children’s picture book writer M Christina Butler. They also had an interesting time browsing round the many stalls and listening to the adjudications of the short story and poetry competitions.

In the evening, joined by Andy from York Writers, Chekhov and the Three Sisters tied for first place in the Literary Pub Quiz chaired by the one and only Arthur Smith.

Our friendly group meets once a fortnight in an upstairs room at the So! Bar and is always open to new members from the Ripon area and beyond. Whether your interest is in poetry or prose, novels, short stories, plays, wacky humour, a more analytical style of writing, or just listening for the time being, you're very welcome.
