MORE IMAGES FROM LAST WEEK'S LAUNCH OF ESSEX BOOK FESTIVAL

Fun to meet up with Thomas Magill from BBC Essex at Chelmsford Library last week - love Thomas' super accent - so distinctive.  Here he is with another friend, the Essex publisher Audrey Snee, CEO Estuary Publishing.  Audrey is to be our speaker in April at the Brentwood Writers' Circle.

Friday at Chelmsford had such a lovely party atmosphere and now, of course, we are doing the rounds and trying to meet up with other pals at the various Essex venues. So far, so good, and so many more events scheduled for this month - see www.essexbookfestival.org.uk
