Join us on Instagram for an interactive event. Authors, did you write a story outside of your experience? Readers, do you read books that are outside of your experience? We want to hear your thoughts.
Go follow @whatlynnsaid on Instagram, she is kicking off the event (and closing it out on 9/26). Then post an Instagram story, reels, livestream, or video post any time between 9/21-9/26 about your experience. Tag us @thewritewomenbookfest and use the hashtags #TWWBF2020 and #WOMXNLITOUT2020 so we can share and comment! This event was inspired by L. Penelope's podcast episode 74, recommended by TWWBF Outreach Coordinator Cardyn Brooks (@cardynbpresents on Instagram). https://lpenelope.com/2020/06/who-tells-your-story-my-imaginary-friends-episode-74/ @leslyepenelope One fun thing we try to do is give out nice swag bags and free raffle book baskets.
This year we have 100 swag bags and two book fest fan baskets and one vendor basket. If you would like your chance to win one of these baskets or to sign up for swag bags please go to this form and fill it out: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1mY7DW96y6IbEYRXCG2SMmUoYE3yC2F4ZwlZ_2d0lS64/viewform?edit_requested=true NOTE that you will need to be available to pick up any swag or basket next Saturday 9/26 from 10am-Noon - volunteers will be at Marietta House Museum to give them out (please wear your mask, we will be wearing ours). The event is virtual but we felt the swag bags were an important part of making you feel appreciated! We hope you will share the book festival with your friends and encourage them to shop from our shop page and attend events online. Thank you! |
