TLC's 15th Birthday Masterclass with Jacob Ross:
How the Novel Works
Ever wonder why some novels simply work better than others?
Why some are timeless and others still on the slush pile?
Join Jacob Ross as he examines how fictional narratives are made, what makes a novel more or less marketable, and why titles matter. The workshop will set purposeful challenges and exercises that you can take away with you.
All-day workshop 10:30-4:30. £75/ £45 concessions.
Includes lunch, tea and coffee.

26th May TLC presents:
Margaret Drabble & Helen Simpson
Short Stories the Form of the Future?
Join us as we celebrate the publication of Margaret Drabble's volume of short stories, A Day in the Life of a Smiling Woman. The novelist will be in conversation with Helen Simpson, the UK's leading short-story practitioner.
A reading from both will follow with a discussion addressing such questions as what can short stories do that novels can't? Who are the best short story writers? And what's going to happen to short stories presented on ipads, iphones and ereaders?
Join us for drinks and an evening of debate, entertainment and revelation.
6.30-8.00pm (drinks available from 6pm). £10 entry.
