The next Ipswich Writers' Cafe (part of the BooksEast festival) is being held as follows:
* Monday 9th May, 7:30pm
* La Tour Cycle Cafe, 17 Tower Street, Ipswich IP1 3BE
We'll be round the back in the lounge. It's a lovely venue.
Take along a piece of creative writing that you'd like to read aloud. Could be a short story, poem, novel extract or monologue, but please try to stay within five minutes. Scribble your name, pop it into the hat and, when your name comes out, enjoy your five minutes of fame.
After each batch of five or six readers, we'll break to chat, exchange contact details and refill our cups.
No booking required. Free entry. Spectators welcome. See you there! http://bookseast.co.uk/
