Novel Fair at Irish Writers Centre

My Table!

There are some photos from the Novel Fair at the Irish Writers' Centre Blog so you can see how it was set up. The photo above is of my table, if you squint you can see the three chapters of the Herbalist, my bio (and my fiendish red notebook.) The day was amazing, well organised, friendly and there was really lovely atmosphere. Pitching your novel to over a dozen agents and publishers in the one day is a great learning experience. Each novelist had a table and a schedule so the agents and publishers moved from one writer to another. We had 15 minutes to pitch to each person. It's the first time a novel fair was run in Ireland, as far as I know, but I hope its not the last. A big thanks to everyone at the Irish Writers Centre:)
