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.

I am kind of a local news nut, so this is a dee-light to see!
Mr. Keith Baldrey's bookshelf is the ultimate BC author's easter egg!!! ❤️ This man has made it a mission to support BC books even as he talks about federal funding for EV infrastructure. He is so cool.
