And a cast of thousands who did everything so well, with great thanks to all who somehow (by oversight, not deliberate slight) did not get mentioned here. Thanks to all who have helped in any way. We could not do this without the selfless help of hundreds of people each year. For every book festival, people give of their time, talent and treasure. During the last three years, there have been countless volunteers who helped. Won't you join the rest of us and help create the magic? Contact erdp2008@yahoo.com if you want to help. We'll both be glad you did.
