Word on the Street was really good. Great events in the tents. Russell Smith did not disappoint. He did mention that fiction doesn't pay. The Giller panel was highly entertaining--I didn't know that Austin Clark, Richard Wright and Vincent Lam were such wits. Also, Quarrington's info about how a novelist's skills translate better to TV than to film might come in handy...
