Cymera 2024

[vivdunstan]

Just booked myself an online digital pass (early bird reduced rate) for this summer's Cymera festival of science fiction, fantasy and horror writing. I'd love to be healthy enough to go to it in person in Edinburgh but the online streaming is a great option. Masses of talks.

For anyone else who might be wondering if the Cymera festival ticket price - especially the online option - is worth it, here's what I wrote about my experiences watching it last year. So phenomenally rewarding for me.

Sounds like it was a really rewarding experience. I also like how Zoom enabled them to have so many authors without them all having to travel to Edinburgh.

Yup, they got some great names remotely. But I am also hugely impressed by how well the tech worked to stream the in venue talks, and to incorporate people viewing remotely. It's just really well done. Which is why I am stumping up for a weekend pass again.
