Beijing Bookworm's International Literary Festival

Backdated from March 13


The Nivens, Jenny (daughter, left) and Liz (mother, right)

Opening night tonight and I was sick as a dog. Just horrible timing, but I'm looking forward to attending more events as the festival goes on.

But seriously: terrible timing. I didn't get to talk to the lovely hostesses, Alex Pearson and Jenny Niven, or any of the readers -- Blake Morrison, Liz Niven, Justin Hill -- or the blogger I recognized, Lijia Zhang, or Pallavi Aiyar and Zachary Mexico and, well, you get the drift... anyone. My friends had fun though.
