BWF writers read to packed venue at Borders Book Festival

Members of the Borders Writers Forum read to a packed venue at the 2023 Borders Book Festival, which featured a feast of headline attractions from Booker prize winner Douglas Stuart to Judy Murray, Val McDermid to Helena Kennedy, and former Children’s Laureate Lauren Child to Rory Bremner, to name a few.

The audience in the Davidson Chalmers Stewart Storytelling Tent was most appreciative as local BWF writers Susan Lorna Allen, Steve Barker, Hayley Emberey, Jessie Growden, Elaine Henderson, Pamela Gordon Hoade, Rachel Kerr, Robert Leach, John McCann, and Peter Zentler-Munro read excerpts of poetry and prose from the latest BWF anthology, “Who am I and how did I get here?”

The anthology is available to purchase from BWFElaine@gmail.com and local bookshops.
