May 29th, 2021 Saturday day-time, the Lone Star Book Festival in Seguin, Texas






 Howdy & Happy New Year in 2021.

 

While we still recover from the COVID19 pandemic, we are looking forward to getting back out there and meeting our fans, and participating in new and exciting ventures.  Our Twitter account is @LoneStarBF You can also, use the hashtag #LoneStarFestival and #SeguinTexas in your postings. 

 

The Lone Star Festival is still on target to happen on May 29, 2021. We have created the first round of social media images both in GIF and JPG that are attached and ready for you to begin using.  Let’s build towards a great event and getting people out on Memorial Day weekend for some FREE fun so they can buy up your books. 

 

Just a quick recap, we are still planning a Friday night reception on May 28th, we will post more information on the website as we get it more finalized. 


The Saturday event is currently scheduled from 9 AM – 4 PM.  I will be sending out notices to the authors in March or April to arrange book readings of 45-minute sessions each.  We will have three categories, Fiction, Non-Fiction, and Children’s.  A separate area is already established for those readings. 


We are still looking for musicians to play outside in the patio area during the event.  Having music inside would only cause sound issues that we have seen to not work well when authors are talking about their books. 


We are working on providing lunch on that day and will keep you advised as it gets closer. 


Don't forget, there is a host hotel, and a link to other hotels, B&B's, etc. on this page: Host Hotel (bookfestival.network)


 

If you have any questions, please let us know. 


Cheers,

Long Live Abortion!

Long Live Abortion! From now until the death of humanity! Warning, if you are a conservative, republican, aging white male, on the tail end of your life; you might NOT enjoy reading this. My relatively youthful opinions on this subject like most folks are strong. I once aced a University of Texas undergraduate course containing this abortion topic with an A letter grade. The course was titled, "Contemporary Moral Problems." Yeehaw! From that now decades old course, our University professor taught us, pupils, that abortion pre-viable fetus in the mother's womb should be allowed . Pre-viable fetus means the organism is unable to live on it's own without the mother. Abortion with a living viable fetus should NOT be allowed. This occurs usually in the 3rd trimester of a woman's pregnancy. To reiterate post-viable fetus, abortion should NOT be allowed. It's pretty simple. This line of thinking, is to determine if the early life can survive on its own,...

Book People states, "Black Lives Matter."

 ‌    ‌    ‌ Dear Reader, Over the last week we have taken some time to reflect on ways to be more effective allies. To start off, we want to make this perfectly clear: Black Lives Matter. BookPeople condemns white supremacy and the police brutality that has long targeted the Black community. We stand with those who are out in our streets, speaking out and fighting for Black lives. Systemic racism is not a matter of opinion, it is fact. We believe that one of our roles as a community bookstore is to provide access to books and educational resources that will inspire and enact change. However, there's always room to be better, to speak louder, and to do more. We are 100% committed to doing the work, to listen, to learn, to take action. We have opened the dialogue internally between leadership and staff members in order to crea...
