Phil and Nina invited Kit to speak at this Kit Berry and Phil and Nina outside their tipi at the Wessex Gatheringpopular annual event on the Isle of Purbeck after a recommendation from two Stonewylde fans. The weather was warm and sunny, and Kit spoke to a crowd in the large marquee about the Stonewylde Series and her experiences in Dorset that inspired the books. 
She then spent a lovely afternoon signing books with Jerry and Diane Bird of the Green Man Books, and got to meet many people who’d already enjoyed the series.
Kit also met up with Damh the Bard, a very keen Stonewylde fan, who gave Kit copies of all his CDs, including his latest release, “The Cauldron Born”. As he already had the whole set of Stonewylde books, Kit couldn’t reciprocate. So instead, she gave him a Stonewylde T-shirt to wear at his next gig. It was lovely to be back in Dorset in such beautiful surroundings, and hopefully all the folk at the Wessex Gathering enjoyed a great week’s camping.
