Reading Edinburgh Book Festival printed programme, looking for online / livestreamed events. Generally no more than one per double page spread of many events. Frustrating as a disabled long-term ill person who can't attend in person. Giving up. Their website is easier to see the few online. #Books #Bookstodon #Accessibility #EdBookFest

A lucid discussion by Mike Berners-Lee at the Edinburgh Book Festival this afternoon. He argues that the only way out of the climate crisis, and the wider polycrisis, is to adopt a zero- tolerance approach to dishonesty in public life. Why are deliberate lies no longer a resigning matter?

Who counts as human? How and why has “human” been a fungible category? If you’re in or near #Edinburgh, #Scotland or northern England you might come to the #EdBookFest where @nicolakellywrites.bsky.social and I are talking about our new books on this. 1/ 💙📚 🗃 #politics @edbookfest.bsky.social

Finally going through the Edinburgh Book Festival programme, and disappointed as the proportion of streamed talks diminishes even further for yet another year. Luckily I am finding some gems, including Robert Macfarlane and Hallie Rubenhold. But it is pretty poor representation on accessibility grounds. #accessibility #streaming #EdBookFest #Books

Anyone doomsdaying about young people no longer reading has obviously not been to a talk with Alice Oseman at Edinburgh International Book Festival. The trick is to make reading relevant to young people. #Heartstopper #AliceOseman #EdBookFest #YoungPeople #reading

I’m off to Edinburgh today, speaking about Ashes and Stones at the Edinburgh International Book Festival tomorrow. I haven’t been on a plane in over six years. I’m nervous, but I’m looking forward to seeing friends and being a part of the exciting line up this year at the festival. This feels like yet another homecoming. 📸 Photo by Nicola Gadler, Unsplash.

Booking my online streaming #Edinburgh Book Festival tickets for this year. I could watch live online, but will also have until the end of September to watch them on catchup, most likely how I’ll watch. My husband is going to watch the #GretaThunberg talk with me. And I’ll also watch the Icelandic Prime Minister speaking about her crime writing career in another. Plus 3 more talks. https://www.edbookfest.co.uk #EdBookFest #EdinburghBookFestival #CrimeWriting #BookFestivals #Books #Iceland #Bookstodon

Browsing the #EdinburghBookFestival programme. I hope to see some events online, either live or on catchup. Aiming for at least #GretaThunberg and #DeniseMina. But I'll wait for my printed copy of the programme to arrive then study it. In person ticket sales open later this month but online streaming tickets can be bought now. The #streaming system they use works very well. I've enjoyed lots of talks in recent years. https://www.edbookfest.co.uk #books #reading #bookFestivals #Edinburgh #edbookfest
