Today's the West Hollywood Book Fair in West Hollywood, CA. I'm so excited because I've been planning for this day since March. I have attended this festival every year since it began and I'm thrilled to be a participant this year.
There's lots of great stuff going on: booths and panel discussions and performances on the Kids Stage. Gore Vidal will be there to sign books and so will Pulitzer Prize winner Jonathan Gold and Algonquin Prize winner Mark Salzmann.
Our event is called "Gen Z Reads YA" and will be on the Robertson Theater Stage toward the back of the fair (when you get there, you'll know what I mean) from 2:30 to 3PM. I'll be reading from "Love, Meg" and YA authors CG Watson ("Quad") and Shan Serafin ("Seventeen") will be reading from their books as well. And if you raise your hands, we'll answer your questions! What a deal!
And it's all free!
So come on down if you're in the area of San Vicente and Santa Monica Boulevards at the West Hollywood Park. Free parking across the street at the Pacific Design Center (a bonus if you know how hard it is to find free parking in this town where they have valet parking for Koo Koo Roo!). Hours are 10A to 6P.
Hope to see you there!
Your (West) Hollywood connection,
Leigh
