Paisley & District U3A Talks: Paisley u3a Learns Crimeland Secrets

About Paisley & District U3A Talks: Paisley u3a Learns Crimeland Secrets

Sandra McGruther will give the lowdown on the international and best-selling Scottish crime writer, Alex Gray. This popular author bases fictional tales in and around Glasgow.

Attendees will hear first-hand tips for successful crime writing on Thursday 2 May at 2pm. Refreshments at u3a monthly meetings are available from 1.30pm in the Salvation Army Hall, Mill Street (PA1 1ND).

u3a chair, Kathy O’Donnell commented: “I think most of us love a good crime mystery and try hard to guess ‘whodunnit.’ Thrillers remain in the top five most common fiction genres. My guess is our speaker has a few plot twists and surprises to share with us!”
