About the event

THIS IS AN EXTERNAL EVENT HELD BY GWISGO BOOKWORM AT GALLERY GWYN, ABERAERON

Join us for an evening of conversation with authors Kathy Biggs and Sian Collins.

Kathy Biggs is originally from Yorkshire. She took a  summer job in Mid Wales in 1985 – and never left. She has two grown  children and lives with her husband, Paul. After studying a number of  Creative Writing courses linked to Aberystwyth University, she  discovered a talent for writing.  The Luck was her first novel.

Scrap is a captivating human fable of friendship and second  chances with touches of magical realism – a quirky contemporary story  set in Swansea. Life has become stale for best friends Mackie and  Sharon, who never imagined they’d end up working in a scrapyard. Sharon  has dreams of becoming a cruise ship star, while a browbeaten Mackie  cares for his wayward daughter’s twins. But  fate takes an unexpected turn when a mysterious kid is discovered in  the boot of a car. He has a remarkable gift—he can draw visions of the  future, and this opens up new avenues that neither could have foreseen…

Siân Collins is an Edinburgh graduate, she taught  Anglo Saxon and Medieval Literature in South Africa, worked as an  assistant editor on The Lancet, and ran English and Drama departments in  several well-known London secondary schools. She returned to her native  Carmarthenshire to teach, write, and relish life in the beautiful Tywi  Valley. Her debut novel, Unleaving, was published in 2019.

Tiding – A coming of age murder mystery exploring death, the  afterlife and memory. During the Great Freeze of 1963, Eleanor O’Dowd, a  middle-aged piano teacher, is found bludgeoned to death. As the freeze  takes hold, there is a brutal reckoning for the residents of Glanmorfa,  who are caught in the grip of an ancient curse. Or so it appears to the  vicar’s daughter, Daphne Morgan, who finds herself engulfed in the  currents of the adult world and mysteries far deeper than she expected  in this chilling story about the power of imagination.
