Local Writing Events

The Morley Literature Festival is now well underway (as you could see from my review yesterday of the excellent Sci-fi and Superheroes event) and there are quite a few writing events happening this month.  I found out yesterday that there is a Scriptwriting Masterclass being run by the BBC Writers Room which will be held in Bradford on Saturday 20 October, details below:
