Marshall District Library is excited to coordinate Marshall’s first Author Hop. What is an author hop? Take a turn around town visiting local businesses & meet & greet area authors along the circuit. Strike up a conversation with authors about your preferred genre or venture into new literary subjects.
Take the afternoon to explore the Marshall area, discover new authors & grow your book collection. Start at the library with the Used Books Sale (free tote bag with purchase) & pick up a printed map of the hop!
A full day of literary events in Historic Marshall!
Unless noted, all events are FREE.
9 - 10:30 am Publishing Roundtable at the library with indie authors & publishing agent Carrie Howland hosted by The Franke Center. Cost & registration at thefranke.org
