Haha, I answer to most things

What a great story, @skylark. Wish I was there for your keynote, but I can only justify coming over from Ireland if I’ve got something written that I can talk about. Which I’ve not got. But your success is well-deserved, and I’m sure you’ll inspire a ton of people with your talk on Sunday!

Philippa, I’ve called him Deads at least 3 or 4 times (hurrying or spellcheck fail) and he’s always been most gracious about it. 😄 Just thinking about your first chapter and pitch success, and Mandy’s keynote speech, makes me doubly happy to go this year.

@Jonathan thank you! And that sounds great – enjoy!

(Side note: still getting used to this site. How do those tags work and how come some names became tags and others didn’t?)

Thank you all!
@Julie Cordiner looking forward to seeing you too!
@GippsGirl Sorry to miss you this time – hug accepted and returned! 😘
@Louise see you there!
@Daedalus steady on, I’m not supposed to blub until Sunday 😉😁
@Philippa you’re well on your way. I can’t wait to see where your journey takes you on the next few years…[Read more]

Hi Deads, I can write a blog, but I’m only going to be at the Festival for the Sunday, so I’m not sure how helpful it will be!
