In an entertaining and informative talk, Bobbie Darbyshire will explain how the complex world of character, location, plot and subplot arrives in a writer’s mind.

Bobby Darbyshire is the author of five novels, including “The Posthumous Adventures of Harry Whittaker” and “The Third Bus”. She has worked as a barmaid, a mushroom picker, a film extra, a maths coach, a cabinet minister’s private secretary, a care assistant and a volunteer adult-literacy teacher, as well as in social research and government policy. Bobbie lives in London and hosts a writers’ group.

After our speaker there will be plenty of time for refreshments, for meeting fellow members, and for catching up with friends.

There is a £5 charge for each session, payable in cash, preferably, on the day.
