TALKING UP A STORM!
The wonderful writers and throngs of book fans have left the Aotea Centre for another year - the Auckland Writers & Readers Festival 2008 having come to an end. A big THANK YOU to all those who have contributed to this year's success! The Festival is only possible because of the generous people - audience members, writers, Sponsors, Funders, Patrons and Friends, volunteers, Festival Board members and Creative Directors (Stephanie Johnson and Peter Wells) - who put their time, energy, intelligence and passion into this engaging and inspirational world-class Festival.
Back in the Festival office, would also like to yell-out a warm and heart-felt thank you - and much love - to our remarkable Director Jill Rawnsley. Jill is away at the Hay Festival, seeking out talent to bribe and cajole into coming to Auckland, next May, for the Auckland Writers & Readers Festival 2009. Enjoy your trip Jill. We look forward to many stories on your return!
