Before I tell you about this fantastic Author Event, I need to announce that we have a winner from the LDS Author Giveaway Hop. Congratulations to "Books Are Sanity" who will be receiving a signed copy of

Author Event
This afternoon I am going to take a little drive (2 hours) to the Salt Lake valley to attend the first ever Author Event night hosted by Endeavor Hall and Taylorsville City Arts Council! I am so excited to be participating in this! This is going to be such a fun evening and they are packing it all into 2 1/2 hours.
Check out the line up of participating authors: Clint Johnson, Mette Harrison, Kristyn Crow, Anne Bowen,
Tess Hilmo, Tom Haraldsen, Thal Dixon, Jayanne Sindt, Stacey Williams, Jennifer Clark, Linda Garner, Lesa McCullough, Carolee Griffin, Brenton Barwick, Sydney Salter, and Eric Patten.
Yes, I get to be one of those authors! I'm even giving a presentation on helping kids develop a love for reading, writing, and creating their own stories. It's going to be a lot of fun. Due to time constraints, I have to keep my presentation to 15 minutes, but I can do that. I'll just talk realllly fast! I won't complain because they are fitting a lot into such a short time period. Here's their schedule:
- 6-7 pm author book signing & mini classes
- 7 p.m. author panel
- 7:30 - 8:15 p.m. Literacy Game Show
For more details take a look on their website. http://www.endeavorhall.org/
My presentation will start at 6 in the small conference room upstairs.
If you can, come and hang out with us tonight!
That is great you did that. It looks like you had some great authors there. I have friends whose kids go to that school.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had fun! I did classroom presentations for them last week. It was a blast! The author night sounds like it was fabulous. I know the kids were so excited for it!
