A small but star-studded literary festival with big ambitions launches on Ivinghoe Lawn on Satuday 22 June 2013

——–

There is still time to buy tickets – or buy them on the day at the door (if marquees have doors!).

The inaugural BeaconLit runs from 12.00-3.30pm.

There will be a crime writing panel, featuring authors S J Bolton, Alison Bruce and Elana Forbes.

That is followed by a romantic fiction panel comprising writers Kate Lace, Carole Matthews and Sue Moorcroft.

In between the panels there will be a BeaconLit a la Carte interlude offering refreshments, book signings, magic carpet storytelling, a creative writing workshop, bookstalls and information about the local library.

There are many literaryfestivals around the country. The organisers of BeaconLit want to join that annual catalogue, to raise interest in books and writing within the Beacon viallages.

The event is being run in association with Ivinghoe Entertainments, as part of the annual Ivinghoe Summer Festival weekend.
