Two of our members, Iris Anne Lewis and Frank McMahon, have joined forces with Liz Carew of Catchword Writers to provide a monthly programme called ‘Writers in the Library’ which takes place every second Monday of each month in Cirencester’s Bingham Library from 2.00pm. The session lasts an hour and features a talk by a writer followed by an opportunity for audience members briefly to share a reading of examples of their own writing or that of other authors they particularly admire. This month’s guest is the poet Anna Saunders.
Described as ‘a modern myth maker,’ Anna is the author of Communion, (Wild Conversations Press), Struck, (Pindrop Press) Kissing the She Bear, (Wild Conversations Press), Burne Jones and the Fox (Indigo Dreams), Ghosting for Beginners, (Indigo Dreams) and Feverfew (Indigo Dreams).
She is also the Executive Director of Cheltenham Poetry Festival and works as a creative writing tutor and mentor, communications specialist, journalist, broadcaster and copywriter/editor.
Anna’s new book is The Prohibition of Touch. (Indigo Dreams 2022).
Anna will be at the Library on Monday February 12.
