The Baltimore Book Festival, and my part in it.

The Baltimore Book Festival features hundreds of appearances by local, celebrity and nationally known authors, book signings, more than 100 exhibitors and booksellers, nonstop readings on multiple stages, cooking demos by top chefs, poetry readings, workshops, panel discussions, walking tours, storytellers and hands-on projects for kids, live music, and a delicious variety of food, beer and wine.

I’ll be taking part, along with a number of SFWA folk, at our Very Own Pavillion!  (ok, a tent. Hush.)  If you’re in the area, come on by, rain or shine!
