Doyle M For Murder
Posted in Writers' Bloc events at 19:13 on 24 February 2009
Here’s a blurb for the Writers’ Bloc reading on Thursday.
Go along. You know you want to.
They say February is the most miserable month of the year. Are you shivering under a duvet and three jumpers, longing for adventure in exotic parts of the world? Come find it at the new Writers’ Bloc show.
And get a free book.
DOYLE M FOR MURDER is part of the Edinburgh City of Literature reading campaign. Drawing inspiration from “The Lost World” and certain other creations of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Writers’ Bloc has somehow ended up with murderous squirrels, dead bagpipers, unlikely German filmmakers and a fellow with a disagreeable pencil moustache.
As if that wasn’t enough, Bloc favourite Andrew J. Wilson has put in a call to the man himself — Conan Doyle has spoken through the ether to dictate an all-new Professor Challenger story, “Out of the Depths”.
You can be part of this astounding literary event NOW by reading the first chapters on the City of Literature web site:

Chapters one to four are available already. But you’ll have to come to the show to hear the incredible climax.
Bloc is yet again trying a NEW VENUE for this show. This is the Pleasance Cabaret Bar, 60 The Pleasance, Edinburgh. Pass through the arch to a courtyard; the Cabaret Bar is at the back left. Admission three golden guineas* (two for concessions).
Authors appearing include Stefan Pearson, Andrew J. Wilson, Morag Edward, Andrew C Ferguson, and Gavin Inglis.
