Calling all independent or self-published Bucks County authors

Posted

The Bucks County Book Festival invites local, independent, or self-published authors to submit their information to participate in the first Writers’ Market.

Wednesday, May 10, is the deadline for author submissions. Applications are available now. Authors who have been selected to participate will be notified June 21, and a wait-list of authors who did not make the first round will be created.

Authors must accept an invitation to participate in the event by July 5. Featured authors will be announced to the public, and promotion will begin July 19.

This is a juried event where a select number of authors will be chosen by a panel of judges to meet readers and sell their books. This event is designed to feature local, self- or independently published authors.

The event will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 30, at The James Lorah Memorial Home in Doylestown. Authors must be available on the day of the event and agree to stay for the duration of the event. There is no cost for authors to participate in this event.

The Friends of the Doylestown Library is a partner for this Discover Doylestown event. For participation information, visit bucksbookfest.org.
