Chicago author and poet Alan Hines (left) and I are both appearing at The Book Market on July 12.
This dual "Meet The Author" event will take place from 1 to 5 p.m., 2365 Plainfield Road in Crest Hill.
I first met when Alan at Calkins Day 2023, the BryonySeries official holiday in honor of Ed Calkins' birthday.
Ed's favorite books are books by local authors. So in honor of his birthday, we invited authors to give Ed one of their books in exchange for one of his. Alan heard about the event and gave both os us one of his poetry books.
Since that time, Alan has popped into several of my events, and I've popped into several of his.
So Janet Staley, owner of The Book Market, suggested we appear together - and now we are!
Like me, Alan Hines is a prolific author and has released nearly as many titles in various genres, including a book for children, horror, urban fiction, and erotica.
And for me, this event will be my last until after I'm recovered from sugery on July 17.
If you're not in the market for any new books, stop out anyway and purchase any BryonySeries book or any book by a WriteOn Joliet author for the WriteOners to give away from our booth on Aug. 2 at Kidz Fest.
We currently have three hundred books to give away - but we can always use more.
We'll even have some handmade BryonySeries swag as gifts with purchase.
Hope to see you there!
