February 16, 2019: I spent two years on the board of the Amelia Island Book Festival. I highly recommend it. Come next year! We bring in the best, high profile authors. This year, the headliner was Diane Gabaldon. Last, year, it was Lee Child. Not too shabby! The best aspect of the AIBF is its Authors in Schools program, bring authors into the schools so young people can be inspired. It’s an awesome program. This year, I was actually part of the Author Expo, and enjoyed pitching my book to the numerous attendees.
