When we arrived at the library it was pretty much late into the night, we settled down and went about our business of reading. I was quite nervous initially, but gradually my confidence grew; we would be reading to our friends and some library staff, it wasn't surprising given the unearthly hour at which we were reading.
However, the reading session, six hours long, turned out to be a quite entertaining affair, albeit with a few hiccups: everyone was sleepy, and our stories were not very well suited to the event. This was the first time I have ever read a story aloud i front of an audience, and found the experience to be quite enlightening. We did manage to catch forty-winks int he wee hours fo the morning, but more importantly, we seized this opportunity to practise reading out loud to a LIVE! audience and also forged closer bonds with our fellow readers.
All in all, it was a rather fruitful experience, and i would be keen to participate in such an event again.
