It's been a week since we all gathered at UBC Robson Square for panels, workshops, and kinship.
The day could not have happened without the team behind it, starting with Bonnie and leading to every person who attended.
🎉to another year of celebrating literature in BC!
Well, that was a wonderful week of celebrating literature with our community.
It would not have been possible without the support of our partners. Big thank you to all of these organizations who make Word happen.
