Improve your Review Writing with Lancaster Litfest

How do you distinguish yourself from the groaning internet multitudes to earn yourself a devoted following who trust what you have to say? Peter Wild, editor of Bookmunch, is running a one day Lancaster Litfest course later this month will take you through what constitutes a good review, including the importance of truth and integrity, the need to temper your temper and the balance needed between telling your reader enough to whet their appetite without spoiling what you’re reviewing.

All attendees will also be given the opportunity to review something for Bookmunch.

Peter Wild is the founder and editor of www.bookmunch.wordpress.com, an award-winning book review site that launched in 2001. In the last ten years, he has reviewed over 1,000 books. His writing and reviews have appeared in Big Issue, Time Out, The Guardian, The Independent, the LA Times and Svenska Dagbladet.
