LOCAL AUTHORS THROW HOLIDAY BOOK SIGNING CELEBRATION
Seattle7Writers presents its first annual Holiday Book Signing Celebration on Saturday, November 20th, 3:00-6:00 pm at the Phinney Neighborhood Center, 6532 Phinney Avenue North on Phinney Ridge.
Come meet the Northwests most beloved authors including Garth Stein, Stephanie Kallos, Jim Lynch, Erica Bauermeister, Erik Larsen, Carol Cassella, Kevin O’Brien, Jennie Shortridge, Elizabeth George, Randy Sue Coburn, Kit Bakke, Maria Dahvana Headley, Bob Dugoni, Sean Beaudoin, Kathleen Alcala, Suzanne Selfors and Susan Wiggs.
These authors books will be available for purchase from Santoros Books, and all authors on hand to sign and personalize them for holiday gifts. Also on hand: fresh baked cookies by Seattle7Writers members, and author readings every half hour. Proceeds from each purchase support Writers in the Schools (WITS) and the Phinney Neighborhood Association.
Seattle7Writers began in 2006, when two Northwest authors, Garth Stein and Jennie Shortridge, got together over coffee to talk shop. Over the next two years, the group expanded and they realized their collective energies could be used not only to promote their own books but to energize their reading communities. They pledged to undertake several community outreach initiatives including pocket libraries in unconventional places, and events designed to support independent bookstores and raise money for literacy and writing programs. Now with 29 authors, Seattle7Writers encourages and promotes Northwest literature with the rallying cry of “Read Local.”
