Wonderful news, my book nerd friends! The Lit Fest is still on! And we'll be at McClellend Park, which many of you may have joined me at last weekend for the ren fest. If not, let me assure you this is an absolutely beautiful park! We're going to have such a fun bookish time. I can't wait to see you all there!

📣 AN IMPORTANT UPDATE!! 📣

The Lake Erie Literary Festival will be taking place at the same date and time, Saturday, September 12th from 12pm - 5pm, but will be RELOCATING!

Our new location will be McClelland Park, address 2600 E 26th St, Erie, PA 16510.

Me trying to move after a day at the Gem City Ren Fest. You guys showed up and were nonstop for most of the day. You found our new location. Thank you so much!!! I’m sure I have more words, but I am going to have to drag myself right into Lit Fest prep now, so hold tight.

All set up at McClelland Park for the Gem City Renaissance Festival and we’ll be here from 10-4 today! The weather is beautiful, the park is lovely, and everyone is just about ready to go! Please note the location change before you head out. It’s going to be a fantastic day in Livaelore!

Attention!!! If you were planning to come to the Ren Fest on Sunday (and if not, you should be, it’s a very fun time!) they’ve worked very hard to keep it happening in light of the horrible destruction from the storm. It will now be held at McClellend Park! I don’t know anything about this location, but I will be there. With literally so many books I’ve been working on just for this event. Please spread the word about the change and please come!

PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD

Due to Frontier Park being closed until further notice, the Gem City Renaissance Festival has been relocated to McClelland Park. We are grateful to the City of Erie for working with us so closely on finding a new location in the face of current conditions.

Please come join us at McClelland Park Sunday September 6th from 10 am to 4 pm and enjoy a festival filled with vendors, demonstrators, entertainers, and the magic of Livaelore!

The moment before slicing into a leather book I spent weeks perfecting to add imperfections. I love my job. And I love a chance to make my favorite kind of books again.

There have been some additions to my events for the rest of the year, so here you have it. Can’t promise I won’t still add one or two more, as I’ve got some things I’m considering, but here is where you’ll be sure to find me. Will I be seeing any new or familiar faces at them?
