built to become the premier annual literary event in the region. It will
feature presentations, book sales, and book-signings from Authors of both
national and local acclaim, as well as workshops for aspiring writers and
activities for children. Thousands of people will come from across the region
to hear writers of all kinds tell the stories of the characters – both
real and fictional – we love to read about, about the craft of writing,
and about the business of books, newspapers, and electronic media.</span></font></p>
