EXETER LIVING - FEBRUARY ISSUE

In this issue we shine a light on the thriving literary scene in and around the city, chatting to local writers Fiona Williams (our front cover star), and foodie Orlando Murrin; plus, we have all the latest on upcoming book festivals, our favourite local bookshops, library events, and so much more! With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, we take the opportunity to talk about all the things we love locally - food to love, places to cherish, and stories to ahh over. 

Enjoy!
