The Texas Book Festival considering "The Nation We Live In." for participation!







Hi George Vance,

Thank you for writing and checking in, and for submitting your book to us this year.

With 2020 leaving us with such a smaller lineup and session capacity (less than half the size of a typical year), we've found ourselves in a smaller box than usual, especially as we still try to cover the same amount of ground program-wise (adult and children's and young adult, fiction and nonfiction, sub-genres of all kinds, and so on).

But the bulk of our committees' curation deliberations indeed last throughout the summer, and few decisions are final until early September. And THE NATION WE LIVE IN remains among our list of books under consideration.

That being said, we will notify you as soon as our review process is complete, and we have made our final decisions. Thank you again, sincerely,

Texas Book Festival

The hope is once the flagship pool is up and running, the business concept could be expanded to different Clothing Optional  markets, concepts, areas, and cities. The primary idea and flagship concept for this business is to find some open zoning land acreage within a large metropolitan city or very close by. Once the land is purchased, the commercial development of the Theme Park can commence. The primary attraction will be a very large, entertaining, amusement, and athletic-style Olympic Pool. There will always be at least 3-5 lanes reserved for athletic or leisure LAP swimming. In order to gain the $7 dollar per day entry fee, applicants must  be over the age of 18, and must also sign a release form promising to NOT publish any photos...

The Electric Urban Scooter Surplus.

Preconceptions.... These new mobile phone application ordered electric scooters whizzing around my downtown and adjacent neighborhoods have distinctly changed Austin Texas's scenery! The terrain has visually been altered. These electronic "pay 16 cents by the minute," scooters have given this new century, a starkly different transportation look. Has your city been bombarded yet? Warning, they are coming. It's inevitable. Visualize with me, the streets and sidewalk you used to actually walk or peddle bike upon, now outwardly sporting these various and competing brand's scooters. How does it work? Well, I imagine, the usage methods are similar to the Uber, and Lyft ride-share models. First, download the scooter brand mobile phone application, next input a credit card for automatic payment, then locate a scooter to use, and finally scan, start, and go. I'd bet it is a pretty simple process. Isn't simplicity always the #1 goal of consumer te...
