Books 1-3 of 5 |
At last, there’s an initiative for self-published writers. The Rhapsody Coffee & Company on the historic High Street, the Old Town, Bridlington, has liaised with local authors to sell their books. And Hornsea Writers are the first to take advantage.
A through room from the coffee shop displays books, both fact and fiction, often featuring places in Yorkshire, especially the East Riding. The genres include crime, romance, historical and family saga. Specifically, all the books are self-published and you won’t find them in the large chain bookstores.
On the first Saturday of each month, a featured author will be there 2-4pm to talk to readers and sign copies. On 1st February Joy Stonehouse will be there to launch the initiative with her popular series of novels set in nearby Reighton in the early 1700s. She will be happy to talk about the background to the stories, the research involved, and explain her ongoing work—a new novel set in Filey during Regency times titled The Boy with Mussel Shell Eyes.
In the coming months, other members of Hornsea Writers will take a turn. Linda Acaster is booked for 1st March when she’ll be there to discuss the writing process, give advice to writers and sign copies of her contemporary suspense novel The Forever House.
As well as a welcoming atmosphere and high quality coffee at Rhapsody, there is a variety of loose-leaf teas, homemade soup, toasted sandwiches and cakes—the perfect place to browse a few books. We hope to see you there.
