When you accost one of the authors at Cheltenham Literature Festival at sea and ask them to hold your bag! American writer (and no, she didn’t know there were two Bostons) called Yvonne Battle-Felton, lovely lady. #BostonBookFestival #TravellingBag
We are saddened to hear of the passing of Professor Benjamin Zephaniah The Professor was a headliner of our 2021 festival and spoke so eloquently of his life and his work. We send condolences to his family and friends and encourage everyone who isn’t familiar with his work to go and seek it out.
Come on book buyers of Boston . If you haven't got your copy of this hilarious rom-com #LoveAtFirstKnight by your very own Boston Born Megan Clawson yet, then please pop out to Boston Waterstones and The Works and see if we can sell out her home town. #Lincolnshire Boston Book Festival
This Saturday I’ll be in Boston Waterstones signing copies of Love at First Knight! Pop down and say hi if you’re around! ⚔️💗
We are so lucky to have our festival in The Grandest House in Boston, Fydell House . Truly a hidden gem, you can have a wander in the beautiful gardens or a peek in the house whilst attending on 8th & 9th June. All we hope is that the sun joins with you! ☀️
From alternative comedy upstart to TV icon, Adrian Edmondson ❎ tells his barnstorming story of life in the limelight, musing on his repressive childhood, Norse heritage and legendary working relationship with Rik Mayall. Now available in paperback: exyu.short.gy/48Z5Qi
Thank you to Nationwide Spalding for providing us with all the tea, coffee and hot chocolate for both our festivals this year. We’ll serve hot drinks with delicious sandwiches, homemade cake, snacks and cold drinks in the gardens of Fydell House over both weekends.
It was lovely to see you again! And to finally meet Author Barbara Copperthwaite | Barbara Havelocke!
