Boff Whalley treks the Otley Chevin

What makes writers from our corner of the world here in Leeds, Yorkshire in the north of England unique and delightful? 

The Leeds Lit Fest (March 4-8, 2020) and host Peter Spafford (Director of Words at Chapel FM Arts Centre / East Leeds FM) takes you "yondering" around our city with some of the Leeds area's most enchanting writers: Malika Booker, James Nash, Seni Seneviratne, Rommi Smith and Boff Whalley as part of the lead up to this year's Leeds Lit Festival. 

Join us for rambles with writers through the streets of Caribbean Chapeltown, the windswept Otley Chevon, the Kirkgate Market, Leeds Library and other literarily inspiring locations and explore the connection between places and writing. 

Later we'll produce podcast programmes on writing workshops during the Festival.
