SUMMARY:Monthly Talk: A Beginning\, a Muddle & an End—Where do Novelists Get their Ideas?
DESCRIPTION:Drawing on the experience of many well-known authors\, in an entertaining\, informative talk\, Bobbie Darbyshire will explain how\, from a few sketchy initial ideas and the wide variety of inspirational sources available to us all\, invention gradually stimulates more invention to produce a novel. Readers and non readers will gain new insight into the creative process that all of us express in some way\, and aspiring writers in the audience will learn they need no special skills\, just the desire to write and perseverance. \nWinner of the 2008 Fiction Prize at the National Academy of Writing and the 2010 New Delta Review Creative Non-Fiction Prize\, Bobbie is the author of five novels\, including The Posthumous Adventures of Harry Whittaker and The Third Bus. Before becoming a writer full-time\, her career was in social research and government policy\, including a stint as a cabinet minister’s private secretary. She has also worked as barmaid\, mushroom picker\, film extra\, maths coach\, care assistant\, and volunteer adult-literacy teacher\, and she has been hosting a writer’s group for 25 years.
