'High Speed' book signings
When commuting to and from work, whether it be by train or bus, do you enjoy a little read to help relax your mind from the hectic day you've just had? Well now you can enjoy the luxuary of the UK's first ever on board 'high speed' book signings too!
Virgin Trains are launching its first ever signings whilst the train continues it's West Coast route and will host well-known authors including writer, Jo Nesbo, highly acclaimed British writer Joanna Trollope, who is launching The Austen Project with a reworking of Jane Austen’s Sense & Sensibility and renowned comedian and author, Ruby Wax.
All the authors involved have either recently launched, or will soon be launching their new books, and will offer Virgin Trains’ passengers an exclusive opportunity to own a signed copy. Travellers will be informed over the on-board announcement system and invited to buy a book before meeting the author for a personalised copy.
Jim Rowe, Virgin Trains Senior Communications Manager said: “Authors routinely travel the country to book signing sessions so we thought why not use the time travelling to sign some more. It is a fact: nowhere else will our authors sign books faster than on our Virgin high speed trains."
