AUTHOR ATTRACTIONS

Meet and converse with world-renowned Guest Authors and the best writers the region has to offer, and see them on multiple panels throughout the weekend. Past guests have included Garfield creator Jim Davis, Diana Gabaldon, John Scalzi, Terry Brooks, Christopher Paolini, Robin Hobb, Raina Telgemeier, and too many more to list!

Visit Author Alley, and purchase the latest books from the many Guest authors at the on-site bookseller, Tattered Cover, or at the author’s own table. Load up on enough books to carry you through the next year until FAN EXPO comes around again!

Purchase your books on-site or bring your own well-worn copy and have them signed by the author for free at their table or one of our signing booths. Authors are always happy to spend a few minutes chatting, so don’t be shy: Tell them how much you admire their work and find out what to expect next!

FAN EXPO is the place to come if you are looking to get established as a writer and need writing or marketing guidance OR you’re just a fan and are looking for ideas for your next, great read! Topics and genres run from Science Fiction and Fantasy, to Horror, Mystery and Paranormal. Authors for all ages will be presenting, from adult to young adult to children’s. We’ll even have guests, panels and demonstrations about screenwriting, and the fastest-growing segments of readership – Romance and Audiobooks!

Want a place to have your regular writers’ group meeting – and then enjoy all the exhibitors and content afterwards? Want to have a book club and discuss one of our guest writers’ books - and then meet that author at a signing or panel? FAN EXPO will help you make that dream come true, just contact our literary guru at Bruce@FanExpoHQ.com .
