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

      Why does the place have no food and smell like s#it recently?

      I was so sick of being ghosted by tradespeople, but contacted Hussein on the advice of a neighbour.  I'm so glad I did. They did a great job, were communicative, started and finished exactly when they said they would and were really tidy and respectful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and great value painter.

      I think for the English, turtles are salt-water (sea) beasts whereas terrapins are fresh water, but I know e.g. Americans use 'turtle' for all chelonians including tortoises.

      They're turtle-y different.  😉 They hibernate, burying themselves under mud or at the bottom of the pond. There have been regular sightings in there (and in Dulwich Park) for years and terrapins can live for 15-20 years in the wild, 30+ years in captivity. They are however an invasive species - whether or not the RSPCA or a local wildlife charity would come out to try and trap / remove them is another matter.
