    I would love to attend. I went to this event when it was called Wordstock. I saw / heard John Irving, Cheryl Strayed, Diana Nyad, Jesse Eisenberg. All of it was brilliant. I also sat in on a session with some local chefs which was brilliant. I love words.

    Being a middle school librarian, I would love to attend the event to get books for the kids to check out, & if possible maybe some of the authors can sign for the library.
