I hope that was easy enough. As you can see, it’s all about building a list of Edinburgh writers. Let’s call anyone who’s published a book or poem (self-publish, digital, or otherwise made real) an author. Let’s use ‘Edinburgh’ in the friendly liberal sense; any author born, raised, who lived, lives or has a connection to the city will do!
Also, please note there’s no change from the vouchers, so spend as close to the £25 as possible. You’ll also be able to buy some breakfast, brunch or lunch.
In particular, Edinburgh Reviews highlights Pudding and Stories’ Events. You can pop over to Comiston to listen to authors, participate in workshops and even learn about the art and science of writing.
The cosy little venue is ideal for a small writers’ group, a chance to gather friends around a table, drink and talk about stories.
N.B. We’re not selling any data in this competition. Winners will be contacted directly by team Edinburgh Reviews.
The book featured in the voucher photograph is NPC Tea by Sarah Millman.
