What a fantastic day filled with inspiring talks and thought-provoking ideas. Thanks so much to all our speakers, chairs, delegates, and sponsors! #ScotBookConf

Brilliant and inspiring talk from Robin Ince at #scotbookconf - the power of books in showing us “it’s okay to be me” 🌈📚

'There are so many quotes, practices, and techniques that people can take from this book.'

'I had an incredible time reading In It Together.'

'The lessons I have learned, I will always remember.'

-Damian Keyes (5/5)
