Yesterday I attended FictionFest in Manchester and it was by far the best organised bookish event I have ever been to - in its inaugural year! It was accessible, welcoming, diverse and had such a nice atmosphere. Unreal to see how many indie authors and small businesses sold out of things 🥰 #booksky
