Sweet Auburn Literary Festival? I'm thinking of going since it will probably be the last thing I could attend because of my pregnancy. I want to make sure it would be worth my time. Any information would be great. Also, does anyone know of any lit. events happening in Florida? Thanks.

Hi Wanda,
There is a web site called sweet auburn festival, I believe. I've gone to the web site, and it's provided a lot of information. Authors can also rent booths for signing. You should be able to find the festival and its literary linksit by using a search engine. Or you can go to blackwriters.org and inquire.

Hi Wanda, I've never attended this event, but I did receive the press release which I don't have access to right now. I believe this is the first year they're adding the literary part onto it. Here is a bit of information and the website though. I plan to attend.
