Directions and map links
Are you an author or part of a group that has published books?
We'd love to include you.
Please make plans to participate.
Please note that every author in a group can reserve their own
space, or the group can take out a space for everyone.
Author Q&A
Is it too late to
participate?
The
Deadline Has Passed
Do I have to write a
certain type of book, or be from a certain area?
Fiction, Non-Fiction, Confederate,
Union - we are in this to celebrate the book, not judge or discriminate. The
book fest welcomes authors of all types. We do request that if you've
fictionalized a non-fiction topic that you do represent yourself true to your
finished work. i.e. A biography that has been sensationalized is actually
fiction.
We welcome authors from anywhere to
participate in this book festival. While we are located on Cowskin Prairie, we
hope to have a wide geographical area of authors represented.
What do I get for
participating?
Author
registration is still available with a late deadline of September 12. Late
registrations accepted by mail (see address below) with a $5.00 late fee, per
registration. Late authors get everything in their exhibit package that those
already participating are:
Authors can reserve a half table
(4') for $15.00, or a full 8' table for $30.00. In addition to networking with other authors
and interested readers, hand selling and signing you work is always a plus. At
this time, with the receipt of paid reservation

How late can I reserve
space?
Authors exhibiting at the first
festival will be able to reserve first. Space will be available to authors until it
sells out, or new lat deadline of September 12th (whichever is first). There is only enough 4' exhibit spaces for 56 exhibitors
total. Some Authors have even inquired about more than a single table for their
exhibit. We only ask that a "good neighbor" policy be observed - no sight
blocking screens or standees, low background music rather than amplified
prepared presentations, etc.
