Information

The
second annual Sedona Book Festival is sponsored by The Well
Red Coyote bookstore, Yavapai College, and the Friends of
the Sedona Public Library.
This year, our festival will be indoors, spread throughout
the scenic Yavapai College Sedona campus, located at 4215
Arts Village Drive (near the intersection of W. State Route
89A and Cultural Park Place) in West Sedona.
Following last year’s successful inaugural festival
under the “big tent,” our new venue allows for
even more participation from authors and others, with ample
and close-in parking, too. And like last year, the festival
will be free to the public.
The Sedona Book Festival 2010 will spotlight local and regional
authors, publishers and other organizations dedicated to celebrating
the pleasures of reading and writing. More than 60 exhibitors
will provide attendees with a wide range of books and book-related
offerings. In addition, select authors will be making presentations
in our special authors’ room throughout the day.
Our Guest of Honor this year, honoring a local individual
who has greatly contributed to the growth and vitality of
the Sedona/Verde Valley literary community, will be Gary Every,
author, poet, performer and moderator of the Sedona Writing
Salon.
Our Keynote Speaker will be Allen Woodman, Chair of the English
Department and Professor of Creative Writing at Northern Arizona
University, author of six books of fiction and scores of short
stories and essays.

Preceding the festival, on Friday evening, October 1, will
be a fundraising “Dinner in the Stacks” at the
Sedona Public Library, sponsored by the Friends of the Sedona
Public Library.
We are also planning several special events prior to the festival,
including an essay contest for school children, an authors-in-schools
project and writing workshops. Check back here for details
as they develop.
