All published Alaskan authors in the realm of creative writing are invited to participate. The fee for a Book Fair table is $20 for a half-table and $35 for a full table. Table set-up will take place the evening of Friday, October 11th from 5:00pm - 6:00pm. Authors must be residents of Alaska but your books do not need to be about or take place in Alaska.

Don't miss the Thursday evening workshop with editor Ali McCart of Indigo Editing & Publications,

"The New World of Publishing"
The publishing industry is changing, and authors are taking note. Print-on-demand technology, ebooks, and the rise of online bookstores have made self-publishing an alluring process to many. But is it right for you? This workshop is specifically designed to give authors a clear picture of what each publishing path involves and tips for determining which path is best for you and your book. Workshop fees are $35 for Alaska Writers Guild and 49 Writers Members, $50 for Non-Members.

Registration deadline for all events is September 30th. For more information, email Brooke Hartman at bahartman@me.com or visit the Alaska Book Week website
