I love the Blairgowrie Book Festival. So glad it's taking place this year.
An inspired move by this small but perfectly formed literary festival.

Here are some of the wonderful remarks that attendees said at the end of the session:
Thank you to all those who have made this a lovely hour.
Thank you Richard for a great interpretation of your book and the modern meaning of pilgrimage.
I have just received the beautiful bookmark, your lovely card and your kind words about the book. Many, many thanks. That feels like a win in itself. Hope to see you in Blairgowrie next year...

BOOKMARK was my favourite Festival.
I always love coming to BOOKMARK as the atmosphere is so friendly and encouraging. I think Gail Wylie is an inspiration and what she and the committee have done here with BOOKMARK is fantastic. This is one of the best book festivals in the country and has really put Blairgowrie on the map.
I love the welcome that the excellent, professional BOOKMARK team of wonderful women gives to its authors and its ability to always bring together a terrific audience – really very special.
Very well done on the programming and organisation of the Festival. Most impressive again and getting Nicola Sturgeon to interview Ali Smith was a triumph. Proud to be associated with BOOKMARK.
I would like to thank you for inviting me and for making Pamela and I so welcome…We had a wonderful time…BOOKMARK is a wonderful festival and if you ever need someone to chair a session or help in any way, I’d be delighted.
