Libraries Wales Author of the Month for March: Georgia Carys Williams


Georgia Carys Williams is Libraries Wales Author of the Month for March!

Georgia's beautiful debut novel will be released on March 18th...

'As someone who was always a quiet and introverted child, years later, I felt the need to explore quietness as a theme in my writing – and the impact it can have on someone’s life. So, creating a quiet and female protagonist who uses dance as a way of expression seemed an ideal way to work with my theme in a delicate and sensitive way. I hope people will find a level of understanding with the protagonist and vouch for her as she encounters the ups and downs of her journey as a vulnerably quiet person. I hope it will be clear, however, that just because someone is vocally quiet, it doesn’t mean their mind isn’t loud, and that everyone has a voice worth listening to.'

A huge round of applause goes to our winner, Gordon Harrop, who is fresh to CWC competitions. Gordon's winning entry served up some diabolical black humour, with a dark twist. Congratulations Gordon, and thank you for submitting such an entertaining and well-written piece! Gordon was joined on the podium by two of our long-standing members, Steve Pritchard and Angela Edwards Rigby, who are no strangers to receiving CWC awards and prizes.
