Edinburgh Ebook Festival


Most people will be aware that the Edinburgh International Book Festival is now in full swing with an excellent programme of events. Because I'm not long back from holiday, I've been a bit behind in mentioning the online Ebook festival happening at the same time. This was set up by the very enterprising and amazing Cally Phillips and the daily programme has a very Scottish feel to it.

I'm taking part on two different days, although I'm dropping in to see what everyone else is doing on throughout each day. Today, my work is under the spotlight in the 'Auld Lums' Writers Reviewing Writers slot at about 3pm. If anyone is interested in the site and writers taking part, you can find it here. It's a very interesting mixture. I believe I'm also featured in Writers Pieces on Saturday 25th August!

A virtual book festival is an interesting idea.

Cara Cooper said...

Well done you, looks like a fascinating thing to be part of!

Rosemary Gemmell said...

It was all Cally's great idea, Talli!

Thanks for your interest, Suzanne!

Isn't it just, Patsy!

Thanks, Cara - I'm just turning up online which is even better!

Apparently, last month on Amazon, ebooks outsold conventional books for the first time, so I imagine ebook festivals will soon be quite commonplace.

Enjoy your day in the spotlight. I only wished I lived nearer so I could pop along and support you. I'll have to do it from a distance! Good luck. Ange xx

Joanna said...

Thank you, Rosemary. I shall have a look right now. It's really good to have you back!

Rosemary Gemmell said...

I guess it had to come, Frances - although I still love reading my print books!

Thabks for your support, Ange - don't worry, it's all virtual and online!

Thanks a lot, Joanne - I do like getting back home again!

Sorry, Joanna, I typed 'e' instead of 'a'!

What a great page at 'Auld Lums' Rosemary. Glad you enjoyed your holiday - but how fab to come home and find yourself right in the middle of The Edinburgh Ebook Festival. Yay!
