There will be a multitude of genres covered, including mystery, fantasy, local history, poetry, and more. Jesse Schell, Community Engagement Technician for the St. Joseph County Public Library, explained, "This is a great way to expose authors to the community. It's also nice to gather together a group of writers so they have the opportunity to share their experiences with one another." Books will range from beginning readers to adult.
The event is scheduled 1:30 p.m. – 4:30 p.m., allowing guests to drop by anytime during those three hours. Most authors are expected to have their books available for purchase. Call 574.282.4658 with any event questions.
