We are extremely grateful to everyone who gave their time and energy to help us out over the course of the week. This includes Abaddon Books, Rob Berg, Melissa Bruninga, Rebecca Levene, Sophia McDougall, David Moore, Tom Pollock and Ian Sales. Thanks to everyone participated, re-tweeted and otherwise enjoyed themselves.
