Mom and I will be going to see the following authors, though there may be some conflicts. . . we'll work it out.
In the poetry pavilion:
10 to 10:30 AM Julia Glass, a poet
10:30 to 11 AM Valerie Martinez, a poet
11 to 11:30 AM Edward Hirsch, a poet
11:30 to 12 PM Poetry Out Loud
12 to 12:45 PM Kay Ryan, a poet and U.S. Poet Laureate
4:15 to 5 PM Tim O'Brien, author of some of the best Vietnam War literature out there.
In the mystery and thriller pavilion:
12:55 to 1:25 PM James Patterson
2:40 to 3:10 PM George Pelecanos
3:15 to 3:45 PM Lisa Scottoline

In the teens and children pavilion:

Signings we are thinking about are for the poets; those will be easy since those are separate from the traditional author signings. The other signings, though we may not make these are:
11 to 12 PM James Patterson
11:30 to 12:30 PM George Pelecanos
12 to 1 PM Nicholas Sparks
12:30 to 1:30 PM Jodi Picoult

Thank you.
I am so excited about going this weekend!
Paula Deen is #1 on my list ;)
OK, here is where I turn green. You'd think Central Florida is illiterate, for all the book events we don't have. I'd definitely be standing in line for Pelecanos!
I see Books We Read paid you a visit, too. Interesting. No idea what that's about.
Anyway...I don't really have any plans. The Girl wants to see the Diary of a Wimpy Kid author and a few others in the Children's Tent. I wouldn't mind seeing Tim O'Brien, Judy Blume, and Paula Deen.
Remember to call me when you're not busy so we can make plans!!
