If you’ve ever been to a writers’ festival, you’ll know what to expect. Stuffy, boring academics, who talk about metaphors and how saying one thing means something completely different.
This one was a little different.
Kami’s account of the Paroxysm lads’ visit to the National Young Writers’ Festival in Newcastle, 2001 will change your opinion of festivals – and not necessarily for the better. You’ll read about drinking, swearing, fighting, and maybe there will be a few references to ‘official’ festival activities in there too.

Extract from a list of festival highlights:
“…the Paroxysm Press boys… though adamant they were nasty pieces of work, were really quite lovely, especially when spending half an hour planning a reconnaissance mission looking for their drunk friend passed out and embarrassed around the corner.” – Hop Dac
