Generations Festival Aberystwyth

Next week Tyler will be returning to Aberystwyth, where he studied for his MA and PhD in Creative Writing.  Aberystwyth University's Creative Writing department, and the Creative Writing society, is hosting a festival on the theme of 'generations'.  Tyler will feature in an event on Saturday, October 28th, along with fellow Aberystwyth alumni Katherine Stansfield and David Towsey, entitled Rising Stars.  They will be reading from their own work, and discussing their artistic influences.  The event starts at 5 p.m., and tickets are £6-8 (available to buy in advance here): so if you're in the area come along, and we'll see you there!

Penned On The Bont

Having just rolled back into town after his event on the Caught by the River stage, at the Good Life Experience Festival (courtesy of Jeff Barrett, and featuring the first reading from No Good Brother - check out the pic of the stage below), Tyler is heading off again this week to do an event with poets Rhian Edwards and fellow BYT Susie Wild.  As part of the ongoing Penned On The Bont series, they will be celebrating the launch of Susie's new poetry collection, Better Houses Have Windows.  It's shaping up to be a great night; things kick off at 7.30 at Carnegie House in Bridgend.  Entry is only a fiver, so come along and we'll catch you there!

The Good Life Experience

This weekend, Tyler and crew will be heading up to Flintshire to attend, and take part in, The Good Life Experience - the festival 'like no other' founded by Cerys Matthews, Steve Abbott, and Charlie & Caroline Gladstone.  The family-friendly festival includes an eclectic range of events, from music and literary readings to axe-throwing and tree climbing.  Tyler's event takes place on Sunday at 1.30 pm, on the Caught By The River stage.  Weekend tickets are still available for adults, and kids up to 11 go free - so if you're not ready to let go of summer yet, and fancy a trip, maybe we'll see you there.  You can check out some of the stellar line-up below...
