Thank you to everyone who came to Edge-Lit on Saturday! Our guests, our workshop hosts, our panellists and our attendees. You all make the event. ❤️ We're going to take a bit of a break now but keep an eye out for announcements re: Edge-Lit 11!

Had a fine time at @EdgeLitDerby on Saturday. Screened BABY ON BOARD (followed by a chat & Q&A with @Stevevolkwriter) & thought our little short looked & sounded great on @derbyquad’s screen. Thanks for all who came to see it, & many thanks to those who bought a few of me books
Edge-Lit retweeted
A huge thank you to everyone who came to Saturday's live show at @derbyquad! You were a fantastic audience, me and @Bob_Fischer had a (nuclear) blast. And to anyone who had problems with the discount code, it's all sorted now, and the code is extended till 4.30pm on Wednesday!

Had a brilliant time at @EdgeLitDerby, big thanks to @lifeofholly plus everyone who came to my weird workshops and helped me draw up this deranged worldbuilding document. The Shrew People of Shard 7 and their parasitic hydrogen sperm will visit me in my nightmares.

Made it back from @EdgeLitDerby, now I have tea, blankets, a little candle, a thunderstorm in the distance, and have already tucked into BOUND IN BLOOD from @TitanBooks ed. @ohsinnerman. This is living 🩸
Edge-Lit retweeted
Yesterday's @EdgeLitDerby was fab! Wasn't enough time to chat to everyone but I loved talking about dystopian fiction & dark fairy tales, watching the poignant 'Baby on Board' short film & coming away with a lovely book haul. @BlackShuckBooks BIG thanks to @lifeofholly! 💗
Edge-Lit retweeted
The Good Unknown and Other Ghost Stories by @Stevevolkwriter is an excellent collection of compassionate, creepy and chilling stories - highly recommended. And what a treat to see the short film of 'Baby on Board', beautifully directed by @ADBarker, at @EdgeLitDerby 👻🤍

The highlight of @EdgeLitDerby is always when @SarahPinborough is compèring the raffle.

Benevolent Ghosts and Malevolent Ghosts. Copies of THE ELECTRIC and SOCIETY PLACE will be available to buy at @EdgeLitDerby tomorrow. SP itself is very much set in Derby, mainly 1970s Normanton. I’ll be there all day, so come and say hello (and buy a book!)
Edge-Lit retweeted
In all the craziness with submissions opening and a new book, we've neglected to keep mentioning that we have an event on in Derby this weekend! Hopefully we'll see some of you at The Quad for @EdgeLitDerby 😍
