Arizona Book Festival April 14th
« Reply #1 on: March 18, 2007, 10:18:50 PM »
Hello all,

I'm working with the book festival for our overall SF/F panels.  In addition to Jim, we'll have a good number of our authors who live in the area turning out.  I thought I'd see if there how many people on here are from the Phoenix area and are likely to turn up.

Right now, Jim's talk should be at 2:30 pm and we'll likely be doing the signing afterwards.

Other authors scheduled include Emily Devenport/Lee Hogan, Ernest Hogan, Adam Niswander, Emma Bull, Will Shetterly, Dennis L. McKiernan, Jeff Mariotte,  John Vornholt aka Caroline Goode, Michelle M. Welch,  Diana Gabaldon, Alan Dean Foster, Melanie Rawn, Evo Terra, Michael Mennenga, Summer Brooks, Michael A. Stackpole, Derek Benz, J. S. Lewis, James A. Owen, and Janni Lee Simner. 

Any questions about the event, let me know

Is Jim's talk only on the 14th or will he be doing something each day?

The Friday event on the schedule is a private reception for the Humanities Council that is putting on the Book Festival.

Saturday will be an hour talk with Jim (current schedule has it at 2 pm) with a signing afterwards. 

Jim is also making an appearance at the Poisoned Pen in Scottsdale the next day at noon.
