Savannah Book Festival–Plan Now to Go

One of my favorite FREE festivals in Savannah is the annual Savannah Book Festival.  This showcase of both fiction and non-fiction authors is a great opportunity to get to know the writer behind the books that entertain, educate, or inspire you.  The list of 2014 festival authors has been published.  Each year I’m introduced to authors I haven’t read.  The Saturday presentations are free; the hard part is deciding who you want to hear.  There’s a lunch break, but you either need to plan to bring a lunch or go to one of the nearby cafes --- I always head to Roly Poly’s at 114 Barnard Street.

A few additional presentations, such as the opening and closing keynotes, require a ticket, but the cost of $15 is a bargain! 

Save the date for the 2014 Festival, taking place President’s Day weekend, February 13-16, in and around Telfair and Wright Squares.  This venue is a block from a parking garage, so it’s very convenient.
