September Song

The Word On The Street is done for another Season, another Year.

Well Done, organizers, and, the Weatherman!  ( Or shouldn't that be
"Weatherperson"?!)  The rain held off, the auditory barriers were barely
successful, and readers of all persuasions were present on the promenade.

Now...., time to prepare for the upcoming Vancouver International  Writers and Readers Festival
( http://www.writersfest.bc.ca/) Vancouver International Writers and Readers Festival.
 " A World of Words".


The 23rd annual festival runs, primarily at Granville Island (Thank you, Ron Basford), from October 19th through to the 24th, 2010.

Sing in the sunshine, splash through poetic puddles, dress in layers, and
prepare for a rich feast of Literary Learning.
Listen up, and bring a notebook, or better yet, your Merriam-Webster app.
If this is your first festival, get to what calls to you and don't try to see everything all at once. Go lightly, and Listen, listen, listen.
You and your notebook can carry the new words home with you to explore at your leisure,
and to welcome them into their new home; your vocabulary!
