Performance poet Carmen Marcus coming to Beverley Library

Tue 27th March 2018
Carmen Marcus

Author and performance poet Carmen Marcus will be at Beverley Library on Thursday, 5 April to deliver a Writing Workshop from 1.30pm – 3pm.

She will be posing the question: “How  do writers transfer their ideas to the written word?” It will be an opportunity for budding writers to find some inspiration for their own writing.

Carmen Marcus lives in the Victorian spa town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea. Her writing has been described as 'crackling dangerously with inherited magic, yet achieving contemporary vitality.'

She is in much demand as a performance poet and has appeared at the Royal Festival Hall. Recently she has been commissioned by BBC Radio 3's Verb New Voices.

'How Saints Die' is her first novel and as a work in progress it won New Writing North's 'Northern Promise' Award.

Tickets for the Writing Workshop cost £7.50 each, and are available now from Beverley Library, or by calling the Booking Line (01482) 392699  or online at www.bridspa.com. Booking is essential.
