Sheryl and I are in River John, NS today for Read by the Sea, a one-day literary festival that’s been bringing authors and book lovers to this little North Shore village since 2000. This year’s festival is dedicated to the late Beulah Wright, a local author and historian who gave a lot to this community. There’s a book fair, which is always a bit dangerous, but there’s no such thing as too many books. A great excuse to ride the ferry and spend a day surrounded by people who love stories as much as we do.
