Happy Lit Fest for this year!

Well, the Lit Fest has drawn to an end for this year. We've had some fantastic moments - Anne and Mary discussing Italy, Candy's advice on writing a legend and John's song were worth the entry fee alone. Wait! There was no entry fee? Well, that just makes it even better!

All the posts will be archived and can be accessed either by clicking the button to the right, or by using the labels.

Don't forget the fabulous giveaways. Most of the competitions will run until the 20th July. View the complete list to see what you can win.

It's been a great way to celebrate our third birthday. Thank you for joining us. Same place, same time next year? Well, perhaps!

Best Wishes,
The ABBA Team.

It's been terrific! Are you really thinking of doing it again next year? All that work... But it would be wonderful!

Most of us will never know how much work the organisers put in to create this. Thank you all, so, so much, Lucy, Sam, penny, Elen, John. (Please tell me i havent forgotten anyone...) It was brilliant. Xx

Thankyou very much everyone. I really enjoyed purrowling through - if a little later than everyone else. It was great fun to see some of you in action in videos!
As Nicola says it was a lot of work and I do appreciate it. I hope I can do something in return one day - apart from buying more books of course!

What a wonderful festival!
Thank you so much to the organizers and contributors.
My list of books-to-get-my-hands-on has grown considerably.

Sam Mills said...

Thank you, Nicola! And an extra thanks to Linda Strachan too, who gave invaluable help in getting in some of the pieces... X

Lucy Coats said...

We all enjoyed it too! And as for the hard work--well, yes, but it was fun and exciting too. More on that from me in tomorrow's festival roundup 'how it happened' post, so look out for it! And thanks from me to all our fab, fantastic festival bloggers--whose brilliant creativity (it so many ways) made ABBAlitfest the success it was....

Still catching up on posts having been away all weekend, but just want to add my thanks to all the organisers for such an inspired idea and to the contributors for so many stimulating and helpful posts. I've never found the time to read ABBA regularly before but the LitFest has made me realise what I'm missing!
