Tom Lloyd Visits Litfest

Litfest, ah Litfest, now in its fourth year as part of Fantasy Faire and getting better by the minute.

Later Tom engaged in an interview with David Abbott and took questions from the audience. Tom later told me :

Never had my computer refuse to work quite so comprehensively before, but in the end that was great fun!

Great fun indeed, but that’s the beauty of Litfest and there’s plenty left in the tank for this year.
