Bracknell Library is hosting a book fair for adults and young adults on Saturday 14 November, and we’re inviting local authors to take part.
The book fair will give authors the opportunity to:
- meet readers and visitors
- showcase and sell your published books
- take part in book signings
- connect with other local authors and readers
- potentially deliver a talk or workshop as part of the wider festival programme
We’re looking for a range of fiction and non-fiction titles for young adults and adults.
Places may be allocated to help us create a balanced and varied selection of genres.
How to take part
