Join Belfast-based writers Aimee Walsh, whose critically-acclaimed debut novel Exile was published this spring and Jan Carson, whose most recent short story collection Quickly, While They Still Have Horses has just hit the shelves to great critical acclaim, for a reading and engaging chat about the joys and trials of writing about this part of the world.

The event is hosted by Hilary Copeland, director of Fighting Words NI, a force for creativity based in east Belfast. Fighting Words NI provides free access to all forms of creative writing for children and young people aged 6-18 years. Find out more at www.fightingwords.co.uk
