Packed schedule for this year's Manx Litefest

Sat, 05 Sep 2015

A literary feast is planned for the Island's writers attending Manx Litfest this year.

Taking place from the 22-27th of this month, you will have the opportunity to meet international best selling authors and pitch projects to agents.

The annual 'Writers' Day' event will be included in the line-up, alongside an 'Open Mic Poetry Slam' on 23rd and a 'Short Story Slam' on 27th.

Joanne Harris MBE, author of 'Chocolat' and 'The Gospel of Loki' and the writer of 'The Year Of Reading Dangerously' Andy Miller will be on hand to dish out their expertise.

Director John Quirk gives us a flavour for the festival:
