We are pleased to announce that Joe Hill, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Horns, The Fireman, Heart-Shaped Box, and Strange Weather will be joining us for both days of Jax Book Fest 2023 and as our keynote Lit Chat speaker! We are equally excited to announce that Angeline Boulley, the New York Times bestselling author of the young adult novels Firekeeper's Daughter, and Dan Santat, and the children's book The Adventures of Beekle: The Unimaginary Friend, will also be joining us on September 23!
Join us between 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. in the lobby of the Center for Adult Learning (on the Conference Level) where each of our community partners will get a chance to spotlight an author from their group. Authors will have about 15-20 minutes to tell you a little bit about themselves (and their work), read a passage or two from their book, and take a few audience questions. You'll also find DOZENS of local authors set up at tables throughout the Conference level and the first two floors of the Main Library!
