The Writers' Room is a new project from Walter Iuzzolino and Jo McGrath, co-founders of the global drama platform Walter Presents. We’re very happy to be hosting an event with their first two authors, Nicole Arend and JP O’Connell, who are both local to the Dulwich area, which will be chaired by Walter.


Hotel Portofino by JP O’Connell is a heady historical drama about a British family who open an upper-class hotel on the magical Italian Riviera during the 1920s. It is a story of personal awakening at a time of global upheaval and of the liberating influence of Italy's enchanting culture, climate and cuisine on British 'innocents abroad'.


Vamps: Fresh Blood by Nicole Arend is the first book in a trilogy set in an elite finishing school for billionaire vampires in Switzerland. It is a brilliantly entertaining, glamorous and unputdownable read about very contemporary themes, such as the global excess of the wealthy elite at a time of dwindling global resources, while at the same time being a very personal coming of age narrative.


Join Nicole, John, and Walter as they discuss the challenges of writing novels and their differing approaches to research as well as reflecting on genre fiction and the enduring international appeal of vampire thrillers and historical coming of age stories. And discover what they plan to work on next... Don’t miss this wonderful event, perfect for any budding writers or for anybody interested in the craft behind a good read!



Location: Dulwich Books, 6 Croxted Road, West Dulwich, SE21 8SW

Time: 19.00 – 20.30


Price: £5 (Admission)

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      Fair enough - I'm absolutely wrong on that one. 👍

      Car crashed into lamp post opposite coop , I hope no one was hurt ?

      I'm still completely unclear what happened, apart from that a car apparently crashed into a lamp post opposite the Co-op. I presume the one in Lordship Lane, though the OP doesn't say. Was it speeding? Did it swerve to avoid someone who ran into the road? Did something go wrong with its brakes or steering? Did the driver have a medical emergency or fall asleep or got  distracted by something? Was there something slippery on the road surface? Was the driver hurt? Were any passengers hurt? Were any pedestrians or other road users hurt? Were there any witnesses?

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      My point was in response to this:  "The idea that serving as a local councillor (including dealing with the public, internal party politics - which is always the most vicious where the stakes are lowest, and plenty of unpaid prep work) is a great pathway for careerists and moneygrabbers is utter shite. On a per hour basis you'd be far better off working at Sainsbos."   You could give up your job at sainsbury's and do a councillor's work and be very much better off. Most of these councillors earn this sort of money and still have full time jobs on the side.
