THANK YOU BOOFEST!

Another great festival: fabulous stories well told, great audience, wonderful cause!
After over five hours of non-stop stories (except for those brief moments of stretching and "hokey-pokeying")  Live and Learn in Kenya's Feed-A-Smile Program had 318 more meals fro kids in Kenya than they did before.

That total is kind of hard to equate, so look at it this way: if this were one child, 318 meals would mean three meals a day for 106 days, OR nearly four months!  Not bad for just telling stories, eh?

Many thanks to Branwen Arts and Seanchai Library for another great event.  Our gratitude to Brique Topaz and Live and Learn in Kenya for letting bring our madness to The Lavender Field.

And thanks to Rick Quargen for the FAB composite photos!

BOOFest - Sunday, October 19th to Benefit Feed-a-Smile!

The fires have been banked and the stories are being polished and ready.  BOOFest is raring to celebrate its fourth year of spooky stories shared 'round the virtual fire to raise money for good causes in the corporeal world.

This year, we will be at a Lavender Fields, on a wonderful spooky festival set created by Dubhna Rhiadra, and all donations from BOOFest will benefit Live and Learn in Kenya’s “Feed a Smile” program 

Festivities will begin at 10am SLT and conclude around 3pm (technical difficulties not withstanding) and all stories will be presented live, in voice.  http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Feed%20A%20Smile/59/20/24

SCHEDULE
All times SLT and always subject to change without notice, because "stuff" happens.

10:00 am - Dubhna Rhiadra
Dubhna is not only a reader of soulful and memorable style, but is also a creator of original tales, and a self-published author.  This year she'll be sharing some of her own stories - a perfect way to begin our BOOFest celebration. Some of her published works can be found on Amazon and AmazonUK.
