Photos from the 2007 Tennessee Williams Literary Festival
The Tennessee Williams Literary Festival was a great experience. I'm glad I was in New Orleans for it. There were helpful bits for wrtiers and readers throughout the event. I'm looking forward to reading some of the authors I hadn't read before.
This slideshow is in chronological order, more or less - Thursday through Sunday - and not nearly everything at the Festival. Just what I got that came out ok. I wish I had taken more photos, like Richard Ford's pink socks that many blogged about, but I was there primarily to hear what the presenters had to say. Besides, I figured that everyone else had snapped a photo of Richard Ford's pink socks.
Once the slideshow starts, click the right side of the photo (or right arrow and left arrow on your computer) to go to the next photo. Or left to go the previous slide.
