Produktbeschreibung

'heartily recommended, and a really, really good book for dipping randomly into, as well as of excellent quality all round.' - Mab Jones, Buzz 'A big box of marvels, abuzz with distinctive voices and vivid tales. This is dazzling testament to the ability of Creative Writing groups to energise and inspire.' - Alan Bilton 'Down-to-earth at one moment, the next fantastical, humorous or heartfelt, nostalgic or raw, and yet hospitable, grounded in locality but with connections open to the wide world' - Philip Gross Some collections serve to mark particular events or milestones, whilst others contain work of the highest quality. This collection manages both of these things, with 75 pieces of poetry, creative non-fiction, and short fiction by local writers celebrating 75 years of creative writing in this fabulous city of the arts. Cardiff Writers' Circle was formed in 1947 and is joined here by other local writing groups, all lending their imaginations to a wide variety of styles, genres, and formats. Poignant, playful, satirical, and acutely observed, this anthology is a showcase for the fantastic talent that exists today in Cardiff, city of the dragon.

Autorenporträt

Sara Hayes has written for fun for a very long time. Since retiring, she has joined Cardiff Writers' Circle, which is even more fun. She has had one poem published and many poems and short stories rejected. She is working on a historical novel set in China at the birth of the Empire. All his life Paul Jauregui has had stories battering around in his head, screaming to be released. His previous audience of two daughters escaped, but he now has two grandchildren who are too little to do that. Yet. He only became chair of Cardiff Writers' Circle to gain a captive audience. Martin Buckridge was born in Peru but lived most of his childhood in West Kirby on the Wirral. Now mainly retired, he had a career in museums, industrial archaeology, and grant giving. He is married and lives in Cardiff. A relative newcomer to creative writing, Martin produces short stories and poetry.
