Flashback Friday to that gorgeous weekend earlier in the month when several city blocks in Chicago’s Printers Row neighborhood were transformed into a booklover’s paradise.

Huge thanks to the 250+ authors and presenters who appeared on stages throughout the weekend, 200+ booksellers and exhibitors who participated in creating a literary wonderland, and unsung heroes behind the scenes who made Lit Fest happen — this weekend and all the weekends in Printers Row Lit Fest’s 40 YEARS. At a time when cultural arts are being defunded and new books are banned every day, putting on a literary festival that’s FREE and open to all is remarkable as ever.

Deep thanks to everyone who showed up this year. It was so uplifting to see such a variety of Fest-goers gather so peacefully during such divisive times.

A shoutout too to “Chicago’s Preeminent Literary Event Photographer” Don Seeley for these marvelous photographs.

As a women-owned independent book store since 1949, we happily celebrate Women’s History Month! Everyday is inspiring because of the many amazing women who help run our book store ❤️

And we’re surrounded by shelves of books about inspiring women throughout history. Next time you visit we hope you’ll celebrate by picking a book on women’s history 📖

“Toggling back and forth between fiction and nonfiction is a bit like cross-training. I find working in both genres strengthens my craft overall.”

My interview with @GioiaDiliberto about her newest book, Firebrands: The Untold Story of Four Women Who Made and Unmade Prohibition, is now available to read at @Wirobooks. Visit the link in my story to read it.

It was lovely to have Gioia Diliberto at the store for her book signing yesterday afternoon. "Firebrands" proved to be an extremely popular book and Gioia had lots of people looking for personalized copies! Thank you for spending your afternoon with us, Gioia, especially at this busy time of year.

It’s #givingtuesday, so you’ve probably been bombarded with emails asking for support today - if you are able, please consider donating to the San Diego Writers Festival. We are a 100% volunteer-run nonprofit dedicated to providing quality literary programming that is free and accessible to all. (Link in bio)

I have been volunteering for this organization since 2019 and it has become a passion project for me - watching our community come together on festival day to listen, learn, and share their voices is an inspiring experience every year—save the date, Saturday, April 5 and come join us!

And, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, thank you to all of the writers out there who continue to give their time, creativity, and wisdom to the world.

Special thanks to those who have committed to speak this year: @lauracathcartrobbins @jennifercoburnbooks @the_real_caitlin_rother @mcoyle044 @joeidewriter @dawn.tripp @hankpryan @saradivello @gioiadiliberto @chelseabieker @ed_begley_jr @hollykammier @vlohhagan @bethanne_patrick @palmfrondzoo @katiekeridan @sallyjpla @michelleglogovac @judyreeveswriter @marnifreedman18

And extra special thank you to @zibbyowens, Kathy Pease, @coronadopubliclibrary, and @zoeofpoppies for their generous sponsorship support.
