Neither quite one thing or another, the time between Christmas and New Year is a fine opportunity to draw the thoughts of a busy year to a close, and look towards a new year ahead with fresh eyes, new optimism and the up-bubbling of wonderful creative ideas.

Spectrum would like to invite those who can attend to a little social gathering for waifs, strays and those of you just keen to get some fresh air. We can share a chat about our shared passion for writing, genre fiction and any recommendations for the January rituals around resolutions, new reading lists and must-see/-read new additions to the speculative canon.

The venue will be the Windsor Castle in Victoria (formerly the much more evocatively named ‘The Cardinal’) from 2:30pm onwards for a drink, a social chat and a chance to write together for those interested in doing so. Price of admission is free, but the fee to leave is one regulation Limerick on a speculative subject of your choice! The worse, the better 🙂

Numbers are limited only for the sake of trying to get something agreed with the venue. If you want to stop by at any point, feel free to do so.
