The 2010 Book Fair is coming!

Keep watching this blog for information about the 5th annual Dallas International Book Fair. I can tell you a couple of things right now. The date is 23 October 2010 and the place is the beautiful Jonsson Central Library, 1515 Young Street in Dallas, across the street from City Hall. Rember, this is free and open to everyone.

The theme for the Book Fair is A Festival of Reading for All Ages. This is not your Scholastic Book Fair, wonderful as those are. The Dallas International Book Fair is for children and for adults. It's a place for all readers to meet authors, get their books signed, hear authors read from their work, attend panels on various topics, or just mill around and socialize with other readers. And it's all free! Every person who loves reading should drop by and bring a friend. Last year 6,000 children came. We would love to have them back and add 6,000 adults.

Be watching the Book Fair web site in the coming weeks for program details. As usual, there will be a short story writing contest, so sharpen your pencils and fire up the computers.

I will of course be there and I hope to meet you. Please search my name, David A. Bedford on YouTube and go to www.strategicpublishinggroup.com/title/Angela1.html to find out about my latest release.

See you at the Fair!
