I’m super excited to be heading to Bowling Green, Kentucky, this week for the Southern Kentucky Book Fest. I’ll be teaching a class titled “Setting as Character” at 9 a.m. Friday morning, attending a meet the authors reception Friday evening, and sitting on a panel titled “People, Places, and Pie” Saturday morning. That last panel is with Karen Spears Zacharias, Ann Gabhart, Naomi Miller, and Rachel Miller so it’ll be a treat for me as much as anyone!
I’ll also be signing as many books as they’ll let me!
The Southern Kentucky Book Fest is one of the state’s largest literary events and is presented by Barnes & Noble Booksellers, Warren County Public Library, and WKU Libraries. The event is in it’s 20th year and I’m honored to be included.
And while it’s great to meet readers, I’ll confess I’m also pretty excited to get to hang out with some author friends. In addition to the ladies on the pie panel, I’ll get to see some other author friends and hopefully meet several new ones. Writing can often feel incredibly solitary, so having an opportunity to spend time with other writers is always a treat.
If you’re in the vicinity of Bowling Green this weekend, I hope you’ll come out to see us. And if you’d like to register (the event is free), click HERE to learn more.
I am so excited to have the opportunity to attend the SOKY Book Festival. Like you, I’m looking forward to connect with author friends like Ann Gabhart. She is such an encourager. I’ll be sitting on the front row of your class. Thank you for agreeing to share your time and expertise.
This is SUCH good news! I always think, what if no one comes?!? Well, if it’s just you and me, we’ll have a wonderful time regardless.
Wish I was just a little closer I would be there! This event sounds like a fun weekend filled with some interesting people. Have fun and I hope you have a good audience with whom to share.
Mary
I wish you were closer, too!
