SUMMARY:SATURDAY SIGNING - meet poet Joost A B Lohman
DESCRIPTION:Come and meet poet Joost Lohman who will be signing copies of his new book A Trail of Words. \n\nHis book of free verse poetry is a celebration of the power of words to evoke emotions and stimulate the imagination. It consists of eight collections\, each focusing on different aspects of human experience. The first two: “The Wonder of Words” and “Sounds\, Colours\, Music” are about the author’s notion that words are synesthetic living creatures that can come together to form poetry. \nIn the next collection\, “The Spirit Within”\, the author explores various means of creative expression while “Loss” and “He Hasn’t Seen the Cracks” deal with traumatic experiences but attempt to show the light at the end of the tunnel. A lighter tone is set in “We Can be Free” and “Ephemeral” before the final collection “Smiles” hopefully does what it says on the tin and puts a smile on your face. \nJoost Lohman was born in the city of Haarlem in the Netherlands and now lives in Kenilworth. He wrote his first poems (in Dutch) as a teenager and continued to write for well over a decade until his muse decided to go into hibernation. At the beginning of the twenty-first century he rediscovered his drive to write\, now adopting English as the vehicle for his work. A Trail of Words is his first collection of poems to appear in print.

SUMMARY:SATURDAY SIGNING – Meet Peter Raposo
DESCRIPTION:Come and meet author Peter Raposo! \nPeter was born in London but raised in Portugal from the age of 2 up until 19. Afterwards he moved back to England. He wrote his first story at the age of 6. When he’s not writing or reading\, you’re more likely to find him playing videogames – he has a YouTube channel called That Boring Dude – or patrolling his city and taking photographs of the world around him using his cheap mobile phone. His first novel ‘dUst’ is classic dystopian science fiction. Since then he has written and published a few more books including ‘This is Not the End’ and ‘The Illusion of Movement’. \nDUst Synopsis  \nThere are no books –\nthe machines don’t allow us to have them anymore… \nAfter the Great War comes to an end the human race starts living side by side with the machines. But some humans have secrets\, as do some machines\, and sooner or later they will clash\, resulting in the last war ever. But before that happens\, the greatest detective of the New World must solve one last case while an asexual sky poet tries to warn the world of the dangers of giving too much freedom to the machines. And the Thin Dust is still in the air\, slowly killing the human race but not the machines. \ndUst is about a dystopian future that might one day arrive without any of us noticing.
