Tickets are still available for talks and events at this year’s Borderlines Book Festival.
The event, which runs until Monday, October 10, has a variety for different speakers, workshops and events for everyone to enjoy.
This year’s event will see authors such as Robert Harris, Anita Sethi and Channel 5’s Yorkshire Shepherdess, Amanda Owen, give talks about their latest projects and their lives as authors and writers.
Borderlines’ ever popular writing workshops also return this year with sessions on the art of storytelling and writing a memoir.
The festival will also feature a dedicated new space for LGBTQI voices, OUTlines, and a new ticket for the under 25s to help widen the reach of the festival.
All events will take place at either Tullie House or in the Fratry Hall at the Cathedral, with ticket prices starting at £5 - with some events free of charge.
