All things start with a great idea. Everything worth having is worth waiting for.
Lots of people here in Mansfield love reading, and I’ve had more than one conversation with book club members, writers, bookshop owners, Arts Mansfield members, visiting authors… about the idea of a literary festival in our lovely little town.
There’s never really a good time to embark on something ambitious like a literary festival. Yet that sits right beside ‘there’s no time like the present’.
