Attingham Park declared a resounding success

Following a meeting this afternoon at Attingham Park the Book Fair in May has been a wonderful success. So much so, plans are now underway to repeat it again next year, which I think is wonderful news. So watch this space. Next year, things will be bigger, better and probably instead of two days we'll do three so that means longer too.

My thanks go to Dorothy Nicolle, Simon Whaley, Mike White and all those who were involved in organising this event. Also thanks to Barbara Groom, Mollie Bolt, Nicola Vincent, Julie Phillips, Fiona and Steve Smith, Jenny Kiernan, Darren Bailey, Di Perry, Phyllis Blakemore, Brenda Carter, Beverley Woodhead (and if I've forgotten anyone please forgive me, or email me and I'll add you to the list) for turning up. Also thanks to Wrekin Writers for the Chairman's Challenges that were on display. We showed Shropshire what a bunch of talented writers we are.

Also I have to say a great big thanks to the authors who turned up. You guys were the stars of the show and I promise you'll get an invitation to next year's event.

And finally, the competition. Well there has been a delay in announcing the results but rest assured the winners will be notified within the next few days.

Thanks again guys without you, your support and enthusiasm Wrekin Writers wouldn't be the fantastic group it is.
