If you’re looking for a perfect
gift to thrill the readers on your list this holiday season, check out the St.
Louis Local Author Extravaganza from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Dec. 10, at
Chesterfield Mall.
“Dozens of authors who live and work in
the St. Louis area will be here, ready to sign their books to make each one
personalized for the recipient,” said Karen Hoffman, founder of Gateway to
Dreams (G2D), a nonprofit organization. G2D will host the event in its first-floor
store, The Business Lodge, located in the Sears wing. The event is co-sponsored
by the St. Louis Writers Guild and St. Louis Publisher’s Association.
“Our
fiction authors represent a cross-section of genres--from mystery and thriller,
to romance, to historicals and steampunk, to science fiction and fantasy,” said
David Lucas, St. Louis Writers Guild president. “Our nonfiction authors write
memoirs, motivational and inspirational books, to name a few.”
