<p><em>We are pleased to invite all writers, artists, thinkers, and literary enthusiasts to attend the 6th edition of the annual Words Rhymes and Rhythm (WRR) Publishers’ literary festival — Feast of Words 2020. Holding Saturday 12th December 2020, this year’s edition is tagged ‘TOGETHER IN ISOLATION’ and will focus on how Nigerian creatives have adapted to life amid the COVID-19 pandemic.</em></p>



<p>In keeping with the current realities of the coronavirus pandemic, Feast of Words 2020 will hold virtually via the Zoom video-conferencing app. The festival will feature literary discourses, readings, performances, award presentations and a picnic at Oke-Ado, Ibadan, Oyo State.</p>
