August 3 Deadline for Author Showcase Submissions

Straw Dog Writers Guild and Forbes Library invite Straw Dog Writers Guild members with a book published in 2020 or 2021 to read as part of the annual Author Showcase on September 8. If you are interested in being part of the Showcase, please indicate your interest by emailing strawdogsubmission@gmail.com.

The deadline to express interest is midnight Tuesday, August 3rd. We will let authors know by August 10th. Twelve authors will be selected at random by drawing names from a hat.

Each reader will have five minutes to read from their work. If we meet in person, authors will have the opportunity to sell their books. If we are on Zoom, links to your books can be posted in the chat.

Once chosen, you will then need to provide a brief bio and photograph for our publicity and Showcase program.

Mark your calendars…
