07/20/2014 by Victor

Gretchen Preston forwarded me the following information about an upcoming book fest in the Sault.

If you have questions, contact Beverly McBride.  Following is her email and the registration form has been pasted into the message below so you can copy and print it. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to make it to this event.

Thanks,
Tyler Tichelaar

Hello! We are thrilled to invite you to participate in the 1st Annual Eastern Upper Peninsula Book Fest, scheduled for Saturday, September 20, 2014, 9am-3pm, sponsored by Creative Endeavors, the arts support group that meets at Bayliss Library in the Sault. We want to feature EUP published authors, illustrators, publishers. We will have a table space for each author, and also schedule reading times for those who wish to read selections from their work for the public. Cost of the booth is $10. That money will be used for signs, flyers, site maps and other surprises we might wrench from it. If you wish to share a table with another writer, please let us know. The other particulars are listed on the first page of the attached registration form. Please note if you want to reserve a box lunch, the procedure is outlined on the registration information, and will be revisited the day of the event.

This idea is a long time coming. We think it will be unique local pilot event, and the entire group is working hard to make this a good experience for all. We are looking at this event as a wonderful time to share and promote your work, and to meet people interested in books and local authors. Please review the attached registration, fill it out, copy and return to me, no later than September 7, first come first served, for both booths and reading slots. I will be taking the registrations via e-mail or you may leave a hard copy for me at Bayliss Library. If you feel the need to speak to a real person about all this, call me at 941 713-2616. If you see another author who should be at the event, please let them know, and encourage them to contact us.
