Hi Readers and Vendors, Check out Quad A's new commercial! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctCDD-BjPbg I've extended the $25.00 early bird ticket until April 15th due to quite a few emails from folks asking for a little more time, you know with taxes due & this sad economy. I understand, that's one of the reasons I want to make this an inexpensive, but elegant day. You can choose to spend the entire day from 9:00a to 7:00p with 30 authors, inc. a buffet breakfast, library readings, ending with a meet & mingle @ the Uptown and transportation between venues for $35.00 or chose to join us later in the afternoon at the Uptown Restaurant & Lounge for hors'dourves and a cash bar from 3-7p. for $25.00. Uptown admission includes a free autographed copy from the participating author of your choice! I've attached a new flyer that I think explains it all, but if you have any questions, please email me with "Quad A" as the subject. Heartfully Yours,...
