You know we love writers. We also love photographers. Clare Keogh is our festival photographer this year and is always wonderful. The writers involved sent on headshots taken by even more wonderful photographers so thank you to them too!

Launches are a big part of a book's life - so much goes into writing & publishing them & they deserve a big party to send them off into the world! So many lovely new books being welcomed into the world makes us very happy indeed :). @MercierBooks
