Jenn Ashworth: British Novelist
4.00pm, Long Room, £6.50
Jenn Ashworth was born in 1982 in Preston. She studied English at Cambridge and since then has gained an MA from the University of Manchester, trained as a librarian and run a prison library in Lancashire. She now lectures in Creative Writing at Lancaster University. Her first novel, A Kind of Intimacy, was published in 2009 and won a Betty Trask Award. Her second, Cold Light, was published by Sceptre in 2011 and she was chosen by BBC’s The Culture Show as one of the twelve Best New British Novelists. Her most recent novels are The Friday Gospels and Fell. Focusing on her own published novels – all of which have been set in Lancashire – and the inspiration, research and writing process behind them, Jenn will give readings from her work and talk about what it is to write about Lancashire.
