The annual extravaganza that is FantastiCon is scheduled for
the full weekend of the 17th and 18th August in Cleethorpes at the
space-age leisure centre. The focus is on a weekend packed with family
activities around games, virtual reality, NERF wars, drone racing, a Mariokart
tournament, an aqua assault course... and some Hornsea Writers too.
The event is used as a launch pad for new publications and
previous years have seen the launch of sci-fi trilogies from Stuart Aken,
crime drama from Penny Grubb and charity anthologies that
have included several group members including Elaine Hemingway, Madeleine McDonald,
April Taylor and Penny Grubb who all appeared in Dreaming of Steam;
Linda Acaster and Stuart Aken in horror anthology 666; Stuart Aken
was also invited to contribute to the fantasy and sci-fi collections, Fusion and Synthesis. Penny Grubb was featured in The Dummies’Guide to Serial Killing that was launched
last year.
Several Hornsea Writers are regulars at FantastiCon. If you
come along and can find a moment between activities and games, please drop by the
bookstore and say hello.
