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,

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...

The Vance Collection The Nation We Live In , $13.50 on Amazon.   "The next best thing to sharing a couple of beers and conversation with a new friend, George Vance McGee's The Nation We Live In is a collection of essays and tales set mostly in Austin, Texas but ranging all over the map in subject matter. Whether you agree or disagree with the amiably opinionated author, you'll find yourself engaged, sometimes surprised, and always ready to keep reading. Highly recommended."  Online Book Reviewer Click here; The Nation We Live In a Collection of Essays and Short Stories "Mr McGee offers a collection of life adventures and bounding travel tales that light up the imagination and tether the reader to his positive view of the world. Hard to believe this raw honesty was published, free of an editors' constraints and shackles. Like El Chapo, McGee escapes the confines of modern literature and presents a fresh perspective on travel and dating in this Brave New World....
