I’m excited to announce that I’ll be one of the Author Presenters at the 7th Annual Blue Ridge Bookfest, April 24 – 25 in Flat Rock, North Carolina on the campus of Blue Ridge Community College. I’m thrilled to be joining renowned authors Tommy Hays, Karen White, Terry Kay, Joe Galloway, and more.

My presentation, on and about my debut historical novel, Keowee Valley, will take place Saturday from 11:00 – 11:45 a.m. in Blue Ridge Community College Campus building TEDC (room TBA). Along with other Author Presenters and Exhibiting Authors, I’ll also be signing books that morning and afternoon in the Exhibit Hall.

It looks to be an incredible weekend for book lovers! All events are FREE except for the dinner with Keynote Speaker Joe Galloway on Friday night, and the luncheon on Saturday. There’ll be something for everyone, with plenty of kids’ events, too.

I’m thrilled to have been asked to take part, and I’m looking forward to many of the weekend’s speakers and events. Joe Galloway, the Keynote Speaker, is a venerable war correspondent and former special consultant to Colin Powell. He’s the author of We Were Soldiers Once … and Young, which was made into a movie starring Mel Gibson and Sam Elliott.

For more information, check out the Blue Ridge Bookfest website here. If you’ve never been to Flat Rock before, it’s a cool and historic little mountain town minutes from Hendersonville, North Carolina–and it’s sure to be drop-dead gorgeous up here in the mountains in April.

I hope to see you there!
