Festivals run on creativity. Operations run on spreadsheets.

Sound familiar? You're not alone. Most literary festivals still run on tools that weren't built for the job.

“We read to find the end, for the story’s sake. We read not to reach it, for the sake of the reading itself. We read searchingly, like trackers, oblivious of our surroundings. We read distractedly, skipping pages. We read with contempt, with admiration, with negligence, with fury, with passion, with envy, with longing. We read in long, slow movements, as if drifting in space, weightless.”

— Alberto Manguel
