Presenting The Finn´s Tale in Tampere

I shall be giving a talk to the Tampere branch of the Finnish-British society on Friday 20 January at 19.00 at the Kansainvälinen Kohtauspaikka, Suvantokatu 13, Tampere. Everyone is welcome.

I´m going to talk about the process of writing my novel, The Finn´s Tale, describing some of the decisions I had to make about plot, characterisation and language, and also commenting a little on the publishing process. After that, I will go on to read a few short passages.

Any visitors to my blog who are in the Tampere area and interested in hearing about my writing are especially welcome. I´d love to meet you.

Copies of The Finn´s Tale will be available for purchase at the advantageous price of 9 euros. I will also bring along some copies of my poetry collection, Midas Touch, and the English translation of Martti Hynynen´s, island, nameless rock.

I´m looking forward to seeing you there.
