Bookish Events

The Secret Readings

The Secret Reading will be held at Welcome To Thournbry. This is a catered event held from 1pm - 4pm. With a panel of 6 fantasy authors as they share their process. Then gather with the attendees to be a part of a bookie-themed game and mingle. Authors will get the opportunity to sell their books on the day as well.

"When I was a reader at a younger age...when it wasn't a cool thing to do. I often wished I knew the tricks of the trade and the 'whys' behind what my favourite authors did. Pondering if I gathered them all into a room over a cozy meal, just what secrets would they spill...This is me bringing that vision to life."

- Celest, Founder of Enchanting Realms

Fees

For the authors, there's none. Our aim for this is to provide a intimit space where you can discuss your journey and promote your books. It's our honour to have you there

This was even better than the August event. I have no notes at all. I’d said last time “repeat what you did just the same again” and you did; and I couldn’t be more pleased. This event is run so smoothly and professionally. Thank you for continuing to let me be a part of it.

Absolutely spellbound!
