The Third Annual OC Book Fair is on for Saturday, November 14 in Old Town Tustin. If you missed last year’s because of the rain, 7,000 people did not and it was a great event. The weather this weekend will be nice for the event, so make your plans to go. Be mindful of where you park toavoid a ticket or a tow.
Here’s more about the OCBook Fair:
The OC Book Fair is a literary extravaganza bringing you talented local writers alongside internationally acclaimed authors for an unforgettable celebration of the written word. Centered in the heart of Old Town Tustin, this event will combine the collective forces of indie bookstores across Southern California, offering unique finds sure to suit every reader’s taste. Additionally, small, and large publishers from around the country will be showcasing their catalogues and augmenting the public’s awareness of the vital work they do in supporting new generations of American writers. Panels, readings, book signings, and workshops, are just some of the exciting participatory activities slated for the day, as well as a program of festivities and live readings throughout the event.
I’d like to add a personal note here; the team at Arvida Books has wored very hard to attract wonderful authors for panels and book signings. I’m fortunate to have several friends you have published books and love to meet fans and sign books. Many people buy their books on Amazon and bring them to book signings. That doesn’t help the bookstores who sponsor the signings. So if you bought a book on Bezos site, bring it and buy another copy at Arvida or one of of thebooth sellng books written by the authors who are attending and ask to have both books signed — one for you and one for a friend.
