A fine time for book fairs
'Tis the season for many things -- overindulging on poultry, overaccepting party invitations, overextending credit cards. It's also the season for a number of book fairs and festivals.
Though a number of cities hosted events earlier this month, there are still several left: Boston and Richmond have fairs coming up this weekend, National Children's Book Week runs until the 18th and Atlanta is currently enjoying its Jewish Book Festival. (November is traditionally Jewish Book Month, so there are a number of Jewish book fairs being held around the country.) And in our Internet Age it's no surprise that there's also an online festival, the Love of Reading Online Book Fair, which begins Wednesday and runs through Friday. This second annual edition will include podcasts and author readings, discussion groups, and -- for those who are hoping eventually to sit on the author side of the table -- advice from agents and publishers. So while you're getting ready for the holidays, take some time to feed your mind. The festivals await. 3 Comments

As one of the sponsors of the Love of Reading.com Online Book Fair, I was very pleased to see the amount of support and interest in this event, which ran November 14-16th, 2007.
I invite everyone to bookmark Love of Reading.com and check out the awesome authors, books, and other events, and join the open forum where you can discuss books, authors, writing, publishing, marketing and more. As a published author, I'll be checking back often and will be available to answer questions from aspiring writers. Just drop me a line in the SPONSORS forum. I think we're going to see more online book fairs. They're exciting, informative and very entertaining! :) See you at the next one! Cheryl Kaye Tardif, bestselling author Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
I can't wait for the online festival. I love to read. What a great opportunity.
