Online Indie Book Festival 2020

If there is one social gathering this introvert can get behind, it’s a book festival. I have happily stood in long lines for a chance to meet a favorite author and crowded shoulder-to-shoulder to hear writers talk about their work. Unfortunately, going to an in-person book festival isn’t exactly in the cards for any of us right now. But thanks to the hard work of indie author Mindy Schoeneman, we can absolutely enjoy a day of book festival fun while staying safe at home.

I am so excited to be one of twenty indie authors joining up for the first-ever Online Indie Book Festival! We’re going to put on a full day of live discussions, author panels, Q&As— and it even ends with an online mixer with authors and attendees. Plus prizes!

Oh, and did I mention it’s free?

I can’t wait for you to meet the two authors I’ll be presenting with on Saturday!

At 11 a.m. CST (noon EST!) I’ll be chatting live on Instagram with YA fantasy author Savannah Goins! We’ll be talking about plotting and planning our fantasy and science fiction worlds, plus some of the craziest things we’ve done for story research.

Then at 2:00 CST (3:00 EST!) ACF Bookens and I will do a live Q&A on Zoom! We’ll be sharing more about our books, our author journeys, and answering your questions too!

The day is absolutely packed with features from authors of just about every genre you can imagine. Take a peek at the festival schedule!

Personally, I’m planning to hunker down in my office with a little leftover Easter candy (okay…a lot of leftover Easter candy!) and enjoy a Saturday full of bookish fun. Please join me! You can RSVP here to get all the links for the live Zoom events.

Hope to see you there!
