Pecha Kucha Cardiff | 24 April

Tomorrow I'll be putting on my Parthian work hat and doing  a mini presentation on women writers in Wales at Pecha Kucha in Chapter.

More info about Pecha Kucha Cardiff:


PechaKucha Night Cardiff is a free event which is part of a worldwide phenomena now showing in 400 cities worldwide, with over 1000 events each year.


Drawing it’s name from the Japanese term for the sound of ‘chit chat’, PechaKucha invites selected speakers to share their knowledge through 20 images, each shown for 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise and keeps things moving at a rapid pace, creating tempo, story, tension, show and tell.

I’ve also been wondering if any of the guys are having the same reserves and rigmaroles as me. Probably not. I doubt they’ve bought new heels. I’m having to put away any spoilt child tendencies too.

This has pros and cons. Pros include getting to have more launches (Cardiff, Swansea, Bangor and London) as we pool marketing budgets, cons include the party not being  exactly  as you, singular, would want it – glitter, cupcakes, my favourite band in my case – and the impossibilities of arranging so many dates where all ...
