Woking Authors Meet


Woking authors who participated in the first online Woking Writers Week were able to meet in the flesh for the first time on Sunday 3 October for a special gathering to promote their latest titles. All had previously showcased their work here at ‘Writers at the Gate’ back in May. 

Since its recent opening, The Lionsheart book and coffee shop in Commercial Way, Woking has been stocking copies of their titles in its dedicated ‘Local Author’ section and the writers were out in force to show their appreciation. 

Lelita Baldock, who arranged the meeting said, ‘It was great to bring such talent together and share our experiences as authors.’ Her new novel, Where the Gulls Fall Silent is out soon with her other titles, Widow’s Lace and The Unsound Sister currently available through Amazon. 

The Asylum Soul author, Mal Foster, said, ‘The meeting proved there is a wealth of talent in the town. Here, we have the nucleus to kick things forward with a view to arranging further events that will enable us to promote our books.' Mal’s new novel, Fluke’s Cradle is due out in the Spring.
