I can't think of a better way of celebrating our seven years of running The Woodstock Bookshop than the talk given by Julia Blackburn in Woodstock Town Hall on Wednesday. Her book,
Threads: The Delicate Life of John Craske is beguiling and wonderful and if you missed her speak about it have a look
here and
here. As I sat listening to Julia describe and read from the book, and go on to talk very movingly of her husband's death and her own need to carry on working and writing, I felt so lucky to have been able to open and run the bookshop and to have had such extraordinary writers here to talk.

A huge thank you to all our customers for making this all possible.
