The Big Book Weekend is a three-day virtual festival bringing together the best of the cancelled UK literary festivals over the Bank Holiday Weekend brought to life via MyVLF (the free global virtual literary festival venue).
Alongside a wealth of sessions featuring 27 different authors, there is a chance to visit the virtual cafe and mingle with fellow readers, visit virtual publisher and author stands in the exhibition and then go into the theatre to listen to the speakers.
All you have to do is register with MyVFL and join in... the first session starts at 10:00am (BST) on Friday 8th May.
