ABOUT THE EVENT

Author Annabel Allen introduces a new genre of “wake up and shake up” fiction with a special Scottish twist.  This is a double bill with readings from 2 brand new novelettes*: one set in Scotland and one set in Sri Lanka (for details about the Sri Lanka novelette, see here).

Annabel will talk about imaginative writing, new ways of publishing written works, and other exhilarating stuff.

*Novelette means a shortish story with fresh kinds of intrigue and mayhem.

The She-Wolf Gardening Club of Edinburgh is the first in the Daring Women of Scotland series.

About The She-Wolf Gardening Club of Edinburgh:

Unruly plants, weeds and women.  Is this a recipe to shuffle dramatic change into the ancient city of Edinburgh? As a motley group of gardening women set things in motion, some ridiculous surprises emerge. At the library, the universities and the homes and gardens of the people of Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital. Will they be ready? Or even notice?

THE SHE-WOLF GARDENING CLUB OF EDINBURGH will be available in audio, e-book and online subscription.

For updates on when they will be available see The Daring Women of Scotland Facebook page.
