I first came across the Autofocus WordPress theme in my friend Kate Griffin’s beautiful blog Photos From My Life. However, I needed the expert tweaking and generosity with his time of Ross Featherstone to make it work the way it does now. If you need a great website contact him at Refresh.
A huge thank you to everyone who made Wakefield Litfest such an enjoyable festival to work on – especially the core team Frances Smith, Sara Unwin, Robert Powell and Emma Butler. If you have never been to The Orangery and its garden you should go, it really is a very special place especially in the perpetual Wakefield summer.
Thanks too to Stefan Grieve and Harry Jelley for their enjoyable company. It was Harry from whom I pocketed the title.
Wakefield is an uplifting place, I enjoyed meeting cultural and entrepreneurial activists fighting the sclerosis off-centre developments have created in parts of the heart of their city.
So, for helping me get to know the place and promoting my residency thanks to Alison Cassels at @WFlibraries, and to @doramaar61 @wood_st_market @LookupWakey @toastedorange @JohnWelding @OssettObserver @Calmcalmcalm @dreamingmethods @WakeExpress @uniquewakefield.
