As a participating author who has been to many literary festivals, I was blown away by how well-organized the festival was, how seamlessly it ran, and how wonderfully you treated all the authors involved. You made us *all* feel special, not just the headliners, you had packed audiences for panels, Gibsons provided an excellent bookselling experience . . . it truly couldn’t have gone better.
