A CALL FOR PRESENTERS:

Authors, publishers, editors, booksellers, librarians, publicists, and bibliophiles in general will be treated to a jam-packed weekend of workshops, panel discussions, classes, and readings.

 This year's event will feature dozens of author appearances and book signings in every genre from children's books to espionage thrillers.
