Who are we?
We are a small team of writing, publishing, broadcasting, tech and social media folk who are burning the midnight oil – and the occasional computer chip – to bring a diversely-curated online literature festival straight to your screens.
Most of us have freelance professional careers outside this locked-down world. We are putting our pent-up energy, skills and creative enthusiasm into creating an experience that brings a literary festival into every living room. We’re here for authors who need a platform and readers who love to hear authors speak.
Though we may be but little, we are fierce in our ambitions and working hard to build a thing of beauty, for you, for these anxious times and beyond.
The three co-founders are Paul Blezard (literary broadcaster and commentator), Wai Mun Yoon (tech entrepreneur), and Palash Davé (cultural strategist and former VP of The Hay Festival).
