Howdy; 

 

Just a quick update on the Lone Star Festival. 

 

Things are coming together as of right now for tents, though we are still sweating them being delivered in time.  We also expect to have enough tables and chairs for everyone.  Thus, if you were planning to bring any of these items, you may want to double-check with me about a week before the event for updates to see if we still need you to bring them. 

 

We have a Facebook page for Lone Star Festival and an events page. You are welcome to post to the events page about yourself and your books, art, or music. Here are the links:

We will need lots of volunteers, so if you have someone coming with you, please ask them to help us set up the morning of the event. 

 

We are still working on the location of the Reception for Friday night; we will update you as soon as we have it confirmed. 

 

COVID19 is still with us, but we are expecting it to be a minor annoyance by the event date.  But, at this time, you may want to plan for bringing your PPE masks, etc., with you. 

 

Finally, between us and the Seguin Tourism office, we are spending about $2,000 in radio and print ads for Seguin and surrounding communities.  This should help make it a great event! 

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

BookPeople GVM Speaking Event, Professional photos taken by Jonathan Garza

GVM spoke and presented his brand new third book, "The Nation We Live In" in Mid February 2020, @BookPeople on the 2nd floor. $13.75 For Sale. Indie Published. This free to attend event went very well! (I personally paid BookPeople something like $250 bucks to set up, host and promote)  I read excerpts from the book for about 15-20 minutes, before opening up to audience Questions and engagement.  A number of signed books were also bought and sold!

It was a Success! The Lone Star Book Festival 5.29.2021 was fantastic!

The Lone Star Book Festival in the Downtown Square of Seguin, Texas today was a SUCCESS! The Indie Authors and I had a friendly, cool wholesome meal @the Power Plant Restaurant and Venue Friday night. Good times all around. The Book Festival Today had roughly 50 or so individual author, music, and art tents. All were surrounding a well manicured Seguin downtown square park with a beautiful fountain. The  streets were  blocked off, and the visiting patrons and book inquisitor guests were gracious and welcoming. The guests even bought books too. Multiple fellow authors told me they sold 15 books or more. The day started off cool, overcast and drizzly, but by 11 am or 12 noon there were blue skies and sunshine. Thanks to BookPeople for the bookmarks, and BookPeople Bumper stickers. There were so many visitors, they all got taken. ---gvm
