This year's West Coast Eisteddfod table at Wordstock 2012

Once again, as part of this year's WCE, we've secured a booth at this year's Wordstock, Portland's book and publishing festival.

 

 

The last time we were at Wordstock was 2010.  That year, Welsh authors Chris Keil and Niall Griffiths
appeared on a panel on Welsh writing in English and Chris delivered a well received workshop on writing dialouge.  Their books were featured at the AmeriCymru booth and they were there with Welsh author Peter Griffiths and Welsh-American author Lorin Morgan-Richards.

 

As every year, Wordstock takes place at the Portland Convention Center, on the east side of the Willamette River and very easy to get to by public transit - there's a trolley/train station right there next to the convention center.  Thousands of people attend and there are booths from publishers and writers and many book and literature related business and organizations and individuals as well as several stages and areas for readings, lectures, workshops, seminars and other events going on over the four days of Wordstock.  

 

So far this year we've confirmed Jen Delyth, who will be there signing copies of her book Celtic Folk Soul: Art, Myth & Symbol, and we're working on confirming more authors.

And we'll be there, bringing Welsh literary goodness to Wordstock!
