As usual, I was floored by the talent, intellectual discussions, outspoken and candid nature of the guests and sheer magnitude of greatness present in one place. The Los Angeles Times Events staff really outdid themselves to bring a variety of literary experts, entrepreneurs, thespians and chefs together. And the best part? I got to meet everyone I shot!

Twitter went crazy as I livetweeted, IG Storied (available as a highlight on @joyofodu) and simultaneously shot on DSLR. LA Weekly and Gabrielle Union are fans: hopefully, you will be too.

Here’s my 2018 LA Times Festival of Books experience in a whole lotta 140 or less!
