About the event
Rocktown Author Festival includes an open forum for the public to meet and greet local authors, purchase their works, and have books signed. The event also includes three panel sessions, led by local experts, designed to inform attendees about getting started in the publishing industry, finding character voice in children’s and young adult writing, and offer insights into self-publishing and traditional publishing. This year, the festival will also include an unveiling of the finished Big Read Mural (weather permitting), painted by Tyler Kauffman. The festival is free and open to the public but advanced registration is required for the panel sessions. Registration is available online at www.mrlib.org.
