Hi Guys,

I'm delighted to have confirmed the final schedule, which is absolutely crammed with a host of readings, workshops, panels, films and loads more in science-fiction, fantasy and horror. And with your ticket price giving you the choice of all the sessions, it's a fantastic value day as well!
To keep up with all the very latest information on the event, including recent posts on our Dealers' Room, raffle, quiz and more, be sure to visit our blog at http://edgelitderby.blogspot.co.uk/, where we'll have loads more news as the event closes in.
