I (Mrs. Nored) went to the Southern Festival of Books in Nashville yesterday and today. This is a yearly festival in Nashville sponsored by Humanities Tennessee. I got to meet the following authors and get books signed for the WCHS library:
- Sara Zarr – The Story of a Girl, Sweethearts, Once Was Lost
- Kathryn Williams – The Lost Summer
- Justine Larbalestier (Scott Westerfeld’s wife) – How to Ditch Your Fairy, Liar
- Melissa de la Cruz – Blue Bloods, The Van Alen Legacy
- Daniel Waters – Generation Dead series
I hoped that Scott Westerfeld (Uglies series) would also be there, but his wife said that he was on a book tour for his new book, Leviathan. Sara Zarr and Kathryn Williams presented together, and we had the chance to ask them questions. Melissa de la Cruz and Daniel Waters presented together, and their question and answer session was also interesting.
