Thank you to everyone who came to Edge-Lit on Saturday! Our guests, our workshop hosts, our panellists and our attendees. You all make the event. ❤️ We're going to take a bit of a break now but keep an eye out for announcements re: Edge-Lit 11!

@Bob_Fischer @monstroso Sorry we didn't get to say hi! It was a pretty hectic day as you can imagine

One lovely and unexpected part of @EdgeLitDerby on Saturday... meeting the charming Charlie Higson in the cafe and having a nice chat about Fighting Fantasy books.

Had a fine time at @EdgeLitDerby on Saturday. Screened BABY ON BOARD (followed by a chat & Q&A with @Stevevolkwriter) & thought our little short looked & sounded great on @derbyquad’s screen. Thanks for all who came to see it, & many thanks to those who bought a few of me books

A huge thank you to everyone who came to Saturday's live show at @derbyquad! You were a fantastic audience, me and @Bob_Fischer had a (nuclear) blast. And to anyone who had problems with the discount code, it's all sorted now, and the code is extended till 4.30pm on Wednesday!

Had a brilliant time at @EdgeLitDerby, big thanks to @lifeofholly plus everyone who came to my weird workshops and helped me draw up this deranged worldbuilding document. The Shrew People of Shard 7 and their parasitic hydrogen sperm will visit me in my nightmares.

Made it back from @EdgeLitDerby, now I have tea, blankets, a little candle, a thunderstorm in the distance, and have already tucked into BOUND IN BLOOD from @TitanBooks ed. @ohsinnerman. This is living 🩸

Yesterday's @EdgeLitDerby was fab! Wasn't enough time to chat to everyone but I loved talking about dystopian fiction & dark fairy tales, watching the poignant 'Baby on Board' short film & coming away with a lovely book haul. @BlackShuckBooks BIG thanks to @lifeofholly! 💗

The Good Unknown and Other Ghost Stories by @Stevevolkwriter is an excellent collection of compassionate, creepy and chilling stories - highly recommended. And what a treat to see the short film of 'Baby on Board', beautifully directed by @ADBarker, at @EdgeLitDerby 👻🤍

@SarahPinborough 😂

A bukkake of raffle tickets….

@robinbarker1 @SarahPinborough That was the prize we wanted!! 😅😭

I entered the @EdgeLitDerby raffle at the end hosted by the always entertaining @SarahPinborough thinking I wasn’t going to win anything and then right at the end one of my numbers was pulled out of the hat and I ended up with 14 books 📚😆

The highlight of @EdgeLitDerby is always when @SarahPinborough is compèring the raffle.

At the science fiction, fantasy and horror festival @EdgeLitDerby with Charlie Higson and Robin Ince being interviewed by Johnny Mains.

Now very well informed about everything to do with the Count after the magnificent Dracula panel @EdgeLitDerby with @AlexDavis1981 @Stevevolkwriter @jasperbark and @Dana_Grigorcea, author of the fantastic Dracula Park derby.ac.uk/dracula

Fabulous panel on history and genre at @EdgeLitDerby with Charlotte Bond, Sarah Brooks, @zenaldehyde & @Stevevolkwriter #derby

A third of the way there already! Help Colwyn Bay build a statue of the friendliest fellow with whom I ever had the pleasure, that Monty Python legend Terry Jones gofund.me/c20fe280

@UnheimlichManvr Sounds well deserved! 🥂

A cheeky "I've finished book three" champagne before getting the train to @EdgeLitDerby 🖤
