Prague Writers' Festival

Last night was the gala opening thing, today the writers start speaking - this will be my second year in attendance, the second time I opted to take a creative writing course that studies the various authors in depth - their history, political activism (when relevant) writing styles and evolution - prior to attending their sessions. Last year was great. I really enjoyed the conversations, learned so much about the amazing people presented and was exposed to so many new writers I really enjoyed.

Hopefully this year will be just as good. Here's the schedule.

I'm most looking forward to Ian Banks - unfortunately I missed the signing yesterday, but it's ok... I"m more interested in his words than in his handwriting.
