• 90 Authors and Presenters
• 40 Outdoor Exhibitors
• 30 Indoor Events
• Children's Activities
• Street Fair and Music
• Contests
• Book signings

Not sure if it's because many of us have extra time on our hands in these recessionary times but I did notice that both Jumpstart your writing sessions (at 10:00 Am and 2:30 PM) are fully booked.
Thinking about posterity.

Also sure to attract crowds (I would have attended it if I was in Boston) Book Worms and Net Crawlers at Trinity Church (11:30 AM):

"An examination of the ubiquitous internet and the explosion of social media. Ben Mezrich, author of Bringing Down the House, talks about his new book The Accidental Billionaire, a look at the origins of Facebook. Ethan Gilsdorf tells about Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks, a chronicle of his own travels through the worlds of online gaming and live-action role-playing..."

Keynote will be delivered at 5PM by Orhan Pamuk who will speak about The Museum of Innocence his recent book and more...

Best of all the event is FREE...

Not able to attend you can still join in the fun with contest above.

Good day for bookworms
