The Book That Changed My Life
Books change lives – Which one changed yours?
Is there a book that you feel really changed your life? A book that made you decide to do what you do or helped you to be who you are?
It might be a treasured childhood book, or a coming-of-age story, a classic novel or even a self-help book, a book that made you think or one that made you laugh... Whatever it is, we’d like you to tell us about “the book that changed your life”!
TWO EVENTS TO LAUNCH THE BOOK THAT CHANGED MY LIFE - BOOK NOW
On Thursday 4 March at 6pm, Sara Sheridan and A L Kennedy will be discussing the book that changed their lives at the National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh.
*PLEASE NOTE This event was wrongly dated in our newsletter as "Wednesday 2 March". Sorry for any confusion!
The event is free but tickets have been going fast and can be booked at www.nls.uk/events/index.html
On Saturday 13 March at 5pm, we will be at the AYE WRITE Festival in Glasgow for an event with Alan Bissett, Ewan Morrison and Sara Sheridan. The programme has just been released and tickets can be booked at www.ayewrite.com/Programme/Events/whatbook_events.htm
The deadline has now passed for submitting stories for possible inclusion in the book that we will be publishing in 2010, but if you have a story to share, we'd still love to hear it, and it will be featured here on the website.
