Authors will participate in one of multiple panel discussions featuring emerging and prominent writers. Titles by guest authors are represented through the library’s regular, Martin’s Most Wanted, and eBook collections. The event continues the successful evolution of “the most prestigious literary event on the Treasure Coast,” first taking place in 1995.
It has hosted over 450 emerging and best-selling authors since its inception, attracting participants from all over the United States.
