I’m going to be one of 25+ authors at the San Mateo County Fair!
Working on a book display stand for the event.
Here is an article about it in the Mercury News.
This is a signing event where local authors will be seated to meet and greet the public, to sign and to sell books to the public. It offers a great opportunity to catch up on your local reading and familiarize yourself with a number of Bay Area authors and our beautiful and incredibly diverse literary arts scene.
Here is a great blog on the event site that lists all of the artists!

I hope that you can be there to support me and the other wonderful local writers. There a reasonable fair admission fee but the literary arts events are free with admission, as are a number of other fantastic fun events at the San Mateo County Fair, which has rides, live musical performances and all kinds of other family fun!
From the website:
“Authors present will include Ezra Barany, Mary Burns, Jon Cory, Minu Dave (aka Inana Dubay), Elizabeth Fajardo, Helen Fama, Valerie Frankel, Tina Gibson, Jay Hartlove, Laurel Anne Hill, Dave Hirzel, Len Hodgeman, Audrey Kalman (Fault Zone Editor), Cheryl & Ellis Levinson, Claire Mack, Winifred McCaffrey, Emerian Rich, Sumiko Saulson, Frank Saunders, Jason Malcolm Stewart, Mar Andres Thomas, Virginia Thomson, Max Tomlinson, Ines Villafane-Leon, LaToya Ward, LoisYoung (aka Sandra Smith), and more!”
This weekend sure is going to be a busy one for me! The Laurel Women’s Writing Group is meeting on Friday at 5:30 pm at the MacArthur Street location of World Ground Cafe in Oakland, and on Sunday, I plan to go to the Pirate Festival in Vallejo, California if all else goes well. So yes, an exciting, busy week! Looking forward to it!
