If you want to be an author, poet, writer or creator of brilliant stories, this panel is the one for you. Ashely Thorpe, Josh Silver and Nidine Aisha Jassat are chaired by Liz Scott and they’re letting YOU know how they made it as professionals.  Ashley writes fantastical adventures for the young and young at heart. His books The Boy to Beat the Gods and Spirit Warriors take inspiration from West African and Caribbean mythology and folklore. He is a passionate trustee of the Manchester Libraries Trust and works as an editor at the fiction studio Storymix, where he helps other writers to create epic stories.  Josh has trained as an actor at the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and went on to perform in the West End and on Broadway. After deciding to change careers, Josh now works with teenagers as a mental health nurse. His debut novel, HappyHead, has won multiple regional awards as well as being nominated for the Carnegie Medal for Writing and shortlisted for the 2024 YA Book. Nadine grew up between the magic of her family’s stories and the pages of her beloved library books. An award-winning writer, she is the author of poetry collection Let Me Tell You This, as well as three middle-grade mysteries full of heart: The Stories Grandma Forgot (And How I Found Them), The Hidden Story of Estie Noor, which was nominated for a Carnegie Medal, and The House at The Edge of the World. Nadine lives in Scotland, and grew up in the north of England with her Yorkshire mum and Zimbabwean dad. She is of mixed heritage; a heritage which can only be told in stories. This event is FREE to attend and aimed at ages 15+. Please book one ticket per person (adult/child).
