Back from the Texas Book Festival!

 

I'm back from a weekend at the Texas Book Festival in Austin. It's the first time the book festival has been held in person in three years. We had a fantastic time. I plan to post about it in a few weeks. 

It's November, and 

it's nothing but nonfiction.

Good Thing #1

It was a stunningly beautiful day in Austin 

for the Texas Book Festival, 

and there were lots and lots of people attending.

Good Thing #2

I volunteered on Saturday in the Read to Me Tent.

I loved hearing all the picture book authors and illustrators,

especially Jon Klassen and Mac Barnett.

Good Thing #3

Janet Evanovich!

I'm happy you joined us here at the Sunday Salon. Sunday Salon is a place to link up and to share what we have been doing during the week. It's a great way to visit other blogs and join in the conversations going on there. 

Some of the things we often talk about at the Sunday Salon:

• What was your week like?
• Read any good books? Tell us about them.
• What other bookish things did you do? 
• What else is going on in your life?
