After three days, the voices of so many brilliant authors are reverberating in my brain, that there’s no room left for my own thoughts.
So for tonight photos will have to do until after I can reboot with a good nights sleep.
Day One
After a cracking opening night, the Festival and I both started off feeling tall, proud and excited about the days ahead. Bring it on!
Day Two Family Day

18 hours in and we’d both started to slump.
The signs were beginning to show.
The artful displays hadn’t faired so well against the barage of kids.
Similarly I was found slumped on the floor at the back of the UWA Theatre, stretching out my back, a back tired of being wedged into rigid chairs.
Day Three
Sloth had well and truly set in.
Still we both struggled on, making it all the way to the end, pushed on by inspiring talks by amazing authors.
