I’m going to be taking part as a guest blogger in the second annual Love of Reading Online Book Fair. The fair will be held November 14-16 at www.loveofreading.com from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. EST. Stay tuned here for my own contribution to the organizer’s blog round-up.

Here’s how they’re describing the event:

A cause for celebration and connection for the burgeoning online book community, the three-day fair has something for everyone, according to Fauzia Burke, a pioneer in online book promotion and president of FSB Associates, host of the successful event. With its “Love of Reading” theme, the event is designed for a wide audience—authors, publishers, booksellers, bookworms, bloggers, reviewers and anyone looking for a gift

for the holidays.

“Participants will have non-halt interaction and information at their fingertips,” says Burke, along with a variety of special events and giveaways. Among the online happenings:

Free raffles—including 3 free books an hour and one large prize giveaway per day

Ongoing Podcasts and author readings by popular authors such as Alan Alda, Kim Edwards and Pulitzer Prize Winner Rick Atkinson.

Guest bloggers and reviewers will blog at the fair
