Pages, Plots and Publishing- A Panel of Local Authors

A panel of local Isle of Wight authors, specialising in various genres, will be talking about their diverse experiences in the publishing world. Whether traditionally published, indie published, or self-published (or a mix of all three), their journeys have all been different. They will explore the joys and difficulties of these industries, from querying to marketing, and illuminate the ups and downs of their respective genres.

Katie Daysh is an author of queer historical fiction, focusing on the lives of men in the 19th century Royal Navy. Her Age of Sail series follows the lives and careers of Hiram Nightingale and Arthur Courtney. The first book, Leeward, was a Times Historical Novel of the Year 2023 and was shortlisted for the 2024 HWA Debut Crown Awards. She was born on the Isle of Wight and lives there.
Mary Grand is a bestselling author of murder mysteries set in the present time but in the style of classic whodunits. These are set on the Isle of Wight where she lives and writes, and include a series featuring amateur detective Susan Flynn. Mary’s writing career started with three self-published novels starting with Free to be Tegan, set in Wales where Mary was born and grew up.
Kathryn Rossati is a poet and author of young adult and children’s books, including her latest release, Naturally Nic/k, out through the independent publisher Book Guild. She is neurodivergent and has hypermobility spectrum disorder. She lives on the Isle of Wight and is often found daydreaming or receiving ‘constructive’ criticism from her boisterous parrot and chatterbox budgie.
Anna Britton is the author of Shot in the Dark and Close to the Edge, part of her traditionally published crime series starring Gabe Martin and Juliet Stern. She also self-publishes under the name Annie Bennet, focusing on cosy romance and fantasy. Something New, the first in the Isle of Doughnut series, is her first self-published novel.
