July 2015 - Marsha Ward

Yes, the first annual Payson Book Festival takes place on Saturday, this Saturday, July 25, from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. at Gila Community College, 201 N. Mud Springs Road, Payson, ARIZONA (because other states have a Payson, too).

I will be at Table 46 in Room 403 throughout the day, except when I am giving my presentation, “Literacy Begins at Home: Build Reading into Family Activities,” from 11:00 to 11:30 a.m. in Room 401.

All of my Owen Family Saga novels will be in the Bookstore in Room 402 for your purchase. I’ll be happy to sign and personalize your books.

Here’s a map of the layout:

Come meet over 60 authors from Arizona who will be on hand to talk to you about their books. Their work represents many genres, including children’s books; mystery, western, fantasy, and romance fiction; and non fiction. Entertainment and food vendors are a part of the fun.

I look forward to seeing you on Saturday at the Payson Book Festival! Please tell your friends about this family-friendly event.

I’m excited about the first annual Payson Book Festival, coming up on July 25. As well as giving a short presentation at 11:00 a.m. on “Literacy Begins at Home: Build Reading into Family Activities,” I will have a book table where I’ll autograph my novels for you to purchase. The Festival will have lots of free family-oriented activities, including the chance to meet and talk with 60 authors from around Arizona, who write in many genres. Workshops, kids’ activities, entertainment, and door prizes will be part of the fun. Food vendors will also be there.

Here’s a radio interview on June 5 that I did with KRIM-FM’s host Phanie. Learn about how I began writing, how the Owen Family Saga evolved, and the Payson Book Festival’s roots.
