Edinburgh Women’s Fiction Festival
Edinburgh Women’s Fiction Festival
There is a BIG festival in town in September. The second one of its kind so it’s still quite new but boy is it turning out to be one of the best.
It runs from Friday 27 – Saturday 28 of September in Edinburgh. A fine fine city with tons of bookshops and now this festival and brilliant authors so what are you waiting for?
The BookTrail is the official support site for the festival and will be featuring every author and their books between now and the festival start. So exciting!!!!
Highlights:
Our featured Friday night author is award-winning Maggie O’Farrell.
Last year’s headline author, Sara Sheridan, will close our author panels on Saturday, joined by author Lesley McDowell.

Other panel subjects will include:
A Discoveries feature with The Women’s Prize.
