thanks yall 💙

authors (and their people), sponsors, staff, press, volunteers, but most especially you, the readers, who have helped us get to 15 years!! And over those years, we’ve seen readers and volunteers and more become authors and come through the festival and we know that this weekend might have been the first genesis of someone’s future author career or their first dive into their new favorite community, and we’re so so grateful!

Thank you to our sponsors, we couldn’t do this without you 💛
