Calling all girlfriends! It’s the last call for Girlfriend Weekend, the annual author/book extravaganza for the Pulpwood Queens of East Texas. The brainchild of Kathy Patrick of Beauty and the Book fame, this promises to be a great weekend for anyone who loves books. And it’s THIS weekend, Jan. 15-16, in historic, weirdly wonderful Jefferson, Texas.
Kathy is teaming up with author Robert Leleux (a new entity known at BobKat) to put on quite the show. Pat Conroy is the featured speaker at Saturday’s luncheon, and his wife, Cassandra King, is also on the program. Other authors on the program are Elizabeth Berg, Kathi Kamen Goldmark, Suzanne Arruda, River Jordan, and one and on. More details are here.
Rumor has it that a certain director of a Writers’ League in Texas may also be around, so if any of you WLT types are there, let’s get together!
And guys, don’t feel left out. You’re definitely welcome too. And look out, you might just end up being voted Timber Guy of the year!
Kathy is still taking registrations, so contact her ASAP to sign up! kathy@beautyandthebook.com; 903-665-7520 or cell 903-445-2353.
