This year’s event features two outstanding Colorado authors:

Shelley Read, author of the acclaimed debut novel Go as a River

From Good Reads: A sweeping, heart-stopping epic of a young woman's journey to becoming, set against the harsh beauty of mid-century Colorado

Go as a River is a drama of enthralling power, combining unforgettable characters and a breathtaking natural setting that reveals the deepest mysteries of love, truth, and fate.

Brook Eddy, author of the nonfiction STEEPED: Adventures of a Tea Entrepreneur. From Good Reads: Isolated, broke, and restless in a drafty mountain A-frame with colicky twins, Brook Eddy needed a path out. This is the story of one woman’s passionate spirit and how it transformed despair into entrepreneurial success. STEEPED is brimming with provocative prose, transcendent images of travel throughout India, and advice for aspiring entrepreneurs, idealists, and travelers.
