Raitlin writing festival

Ballycastle Creative Writers want to take you to the Island (11 - 13 September 2009).
The 'Let me take you to the island' Rathlin Island residential literary festival is back this year for its tenth anniversary! There are workshops in poetry, song, film, stage and short story. The weekend begins when you board the Rathlin Ferry from Ballycastle Harbour at 4.30pm on Friday for the short crossing to the Island and continues on apace until the return journey on Sunday. Presiding artist / facilitators include Dermot Bolger (novel writing), David Duggan (writing for stage); Kate Newmann (poetry); Ruth Carr (poetry); Colum Sands (songwriting); Teresa Godfrey (screenwriting); Damian Gorman (six rules for writing anything!).

The Ballycastle Creative Writers who organise the festival have just gotten a new website and you can get all the details and booking form there - www.rathlinislandwriters..com or contact info@ballycastlewritersgroup.com for further information.
