Heard on Jenny Crwys-Williams' book show on Radio 702 last week:
The 2010 Franschhoek Literary Festival will be held from 14th to 16th May. It looks like it's going to be great fun and very interesting. You can check it out here. If you live in the Cape and decide to go along, please drop us a line and tell us all about it, as most of us here at South African Romance Writers are a little too far away. Guest bloggers welcome ...
On the back of this, festival organiser Christopher Hope will be holding a residential writing workshop in the little town of Greyton. The workshop seems very reasonably priced considering the fee also includes accommodation, but again it's sadly too far away for me to attend, so if anyone out there goes along we'd love to hear about it. More information can be found here.
Finally, if you love books and want to keep up with what's happening in South African publishing, podcasts of Jenny's shows can be found here.
We'll be heading to Franschoek on Sunday 16th May - hoping to get there early enough to visit the festival, even if only the last few items. Need to check the programme for the last day so we can leave Fish Hoek early enough. If we do manage to get there on time I'll let you know on our return to Jozi.
