For anyone new to the Boston Book Festival, it's a chance to hear from authors and poets, while also connecting with fellow readers. There are workshops, panels, and an outdoor vendor area. A little bit like Readercon.

Have we crowed loud enough that our 2027 guests of honor are Fonda Lee and Neil Clarke of Clarkesworld Magazine?

How awesome is that? Come and join us in July 2027 as we celebrate their contributions to the literature of speculative fiction!

At Readercon 34 #LJCohen and @wbjwilliams moderated a poetry workshop based upon the Exquisite Corpse parlor game. They created poetry from a prompt, each person writing the next line of the poem with only the prior line visible.
