SUMMARY:Eilish Fisher
DESCRIPTION:Eilish Fisher  \nFia and the Last Snow Deer \nThe Waters and the Wild \nUpstairs at Bookfest \n9-12 years \nHow can music shape a story? Can a melody create a mood\, inspire a character or suggest an entirely new world?  This engaging workshop explores the powerful connection between music and creative writing. Young participants will listen to a range of musical pieces and consider how different sounds\, rhythms and styles can influence emotions\, atmosphere and storytelling. Through guided discussion and carefully chosen audio prompts\, they will then create an original piece of writing inspired by the music they hear\, experimenting with mood\, setting and character.  Ideal for aspiring writers and musicians\, this session offers a fresh and inspiring approach to creativity across the arts. \nEilish Fisher is an award-winning children’s literature author and poet from Vermont and Wicklow\, Ireland.  Both novels are written in verse\, a format that many young readers find captivating. \nTickets go on sale 15 August for priority booking and 22 August for general sale. \n\n\n \nImage © Nick Bradshaw

SUMMARY:Kate Mosse - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:Kate Mosse\nwith Steven Gale \nAutumn\nThe Story of a Season \nExploring folklore\, nature and creativity\, Autumn is a love-letter to Sussex and an atmospheric portrait of the autumn season from one of our best-loved writers. \nKate Mosse takes us to the Sussex marshlands of her childhood\, when they are at their mulchy\, misty\, golden-hued best. In the reed banks she spots plovers and Goldeneye ducks. Along the sea wall\, she glimpses purple sea lavender\, Brent geese and curlews\, in the oak pond\, herons and little egrets. \nPlace is the inspiration for all of Kate’s writing. Her stories come from the landscapes of south-west France\, Holland\, South Africa\, and her native Sussex. Kate has written 11 novels and is the founder director of the Women’s Prize for Fiction and the Women’s Prize for Non-Fiction. She is also a trustee of the British Library. In 2024\, she was awarded a CBE for services to literature\, women\, and charity. \nKate appeared at the book festival in 2020\, online\, and we are so pleased to have her back in person for our tenth festival. Her husband Greg and son Felix are completing the Mosse family line-up this year. \nSteven Gale will be in conversation with Kate. \nSold out – join waiting list \n\n\n \n  \nImage © Ruth Crafer
