AJC Decatur Book Festival

by Cheryle Boyle

My book and I are off on a new adventure.  We will be participating in the AJC (Atlanta Journal Constitution) Decatur Book Festival, located in Decatur, Georgia and presented by DeKalb Medical, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday September 2-4, 2016.  538: Murder, Suicide and A Mother’s Love will be hanging out in the Emerging Author’s Tent.

The festival has an 11-year history which promotes local and regional authors.  This is the place where words come together with writers and readers.  With an expected 75,000 in attendance this year, there should not be a shortage of fun at this festival.  Want to be involved, you can sign up to volunteer, www.decaturbookfestival.com/

I hope that you can stop by and participate in all the events planned for Labor Day weekend.
