The Centre for New Writing is sponsoring a live transatlantic talk via Skype by novelist Neil Gaiman. The event is free and open to all, no need to book.
Neil Gaiman is the author of the comic book series The Sandman and novels Stardust, American Gods, Coraline, and The Graveyard Book.
Gaiman's writing has won numerous awards, including the Hugo, Nebula and Bram Stoker, as well as the 2009 Newbery Medal and 2010 Carnegie Medal in Literature.
He will be discussing by Skype the Hugo-Award winning A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The talk is part of the MA programme and trails the new SF and Fantasy writing workshop for year three EAS students, which will be held in Spring Semester 2012.
Registration for the new workshop is by selection, based on a submission of a short story. You must be an EAS undergraduate currently in year 2. Due date: Friday 8 April.
