Eden Mills Festival Fringe!
Today’s exciting news was that my story “You Can’t Run a Show on Stage Management Alone” was accepted as part of the Fringe Stage at the Eden Mills Writers Festival. This will be my third year attending the festival, and I was looking forward to it anyway, but that I’ll actually now be (a small) part of the event is overwhelming and really lovely. Hope some of you can make it out on Sunday September 19th, and we’ll start crossing our fingers for sunshine.
Hooray! I’ll be in the front row (insofar as there are rows at Eden Mills. I’ll be in the front area of grass!)
Rebecca, oh, I hope my reading doesn’t coincide with anyone too unmissable. I would understand if you had to duck in and out, of course. Can’t wait to share another Eden Mills with you! xo
Hooray! I hope we can meet and say hello. I coordinate the YA authors so I’ll be around all day. I hope you can stay for dinner at the end of the day. It’s a lovely communal event.
Clare, I am definitely looking forward to meeting you. And to everything! (And I had the privilege of the dinner a couple of years ago when I was Rebecca Rosenblum’s guest. A wonderful event, with pie, and standing behind Lawrence Hill in the buffet line).
Congratulations, Kerry. I had the distinct thrill of reading on the Fringe ‘stage’ the year your friend RR read at the Mill. (I was among the drenched but happy audience on that Mill hillside!) Also much fun had inside the authors’ cottage or whatever it’s called. Lots of good grub, and Caroline Adderson taught me how to work my name tag string so it didn’t hang down looking like a fig leaf.
Hoping to attend; if I manage it I’ll make a point of saying hello.
Oh, that was a legendary day. The day we saw Rebecca’s book for the first time! Glad I’m following in some fine footsteps. Hope to see you there.
I’m hoping to be there this year… even more reason to go now!
Yay! Congratulations! If we can make it (all of us …), we will!
