Some tweets from this year's editio

  1. Just realised I have no idea who's appearing at #thestory2013, and I don't care. This is the measure of any great conference.
  2. "We believe in clouds." A manifesto commitment you can get behind in the Children's Republic of Shoreditch. #thestory2013
  3. Foraging through the post-war archives with Rebecca O'Brien at #thestory2013 Fingers crossed we'll get The Spirit of 45 @wshed sharpish.
  4. "Kids learn about the war but don't learn about the peace." This is true or at least it's presented as inevitable. It wasn't. #thestory2013
