I really enjoyed Thursday night, I thought it might be a bit sparse with the Bank Holiday looming but no - eight people turned up. We heard some excellent poetry plus a piece in translation and some very good prose and then to top it all, Steve gave a virtuoso reading of his piece - you know the one, the one about the man who wakes up dead. He had everyone in stitches including himself and eventually had to give up reading because everyone was laughing too much. Nice one!

Well done to wgwg member Mary Bracht who came second in the Page Turner Prize Novella Competition!

It was a good night - despite the room's lighting sensor going beserk and casting us into complete darkness - twice. A good turn out of eleven people and we heard some excellent poems, Jarred read another piece from his book in progress, three new people turned up and we got presented with free nibbles and cake in the pub afterwards. Result!
