Come to hear local author Lizzie Church at the first Weymouth Leviathan Maritime Literary Festival, on Saturday 12 March, at 5pm in the Old Rooms Inn, where she will be discussing the influences of Jane Austen and the sea on her historical romances – novels which carry you gently back to the Regency era in Weymouth, when the King came down on his holidays here, and visitors bathed in Weymouth bay from horse-drawn ‘garden sheds’.
Tickets £4 from The Royal Dorset Yacht Club or http://weymouthleviathan.org.uk/tickets Use code WEYLEVBFF for a discount.
Lizzie’s ‘The Weymouth Trilogy’ will be on free download on Kindle for the duration of the festival.
