Dear Author,

Local author festivals provide an opportunity for authors to showcase their work while developing connections in the area, and the public learns about authors publishing right here in their neighborhood. Attendees can meet some of the top writing talents in the region, sample their work, and even take home an autographed book.

You are cordially invited to apply for participation in the 2019 Enid Author Fest to be held at the Enid Public Library Saturday, March 2, 2019, from 1:00-5:00 pm.

Tables will be set up in the first floor lobby for book signing and selling from 1:00-5:00 pm. Informal readings for children’s and young adult authors will take place on the west side of the library, and for adults on the east. If you wish to participate please indicate on the registration form. Readings will be limited to no more than 10 minutes due to time constraints.

Authors will need to provide their own books to sell and a money box with change. Authors will be responsible for the selling of their books as well as Oklahoma/Garfield County/City of Enid sales tax for this event. While authors will be limited to promoting one title through festival marketing, they are welcome to bring as many titles as they wish to sell.

In lieu of a table fee, authors are asked to donate a copy of the book they are promoting. This should be a title not already in our library’s collection.
