What was the last great story you heard? The sharing of stories, no matter how they're packaged, bridges all kinds of gaps to bring us together; to entertain; to educate; and sometimes simply to provide a little escape. In this issue of Mindful Puzzles, read about the rise of literary festivals and how they bring together readers, writers, and bookworms alike to share stories and ideas; how embracing your natural creativity (yes, you do have some!) can help release you from the fear of failure; and how you can grow more than just flowers in community gardens. You'll also trail the beautiful mountain ranges of the Dolomites, whet your appetite with delectable recipes from Katrina Meynink and Cara Devine, and tickle your intellect with 50+ bespoke crosswords and puzzles. There's also the chance to win fantastic prizes in our Solve & Win competitions. Let Mindful Puzzles whisk you away and delight all the senses.
