One of our missions here at Hawaii Book Blog is to help promote local literacy events such as book fairs, library programs and book signings.  We enjoy going to these and want to ensure that as many people out there know when and where these events are taking place.

This past Saturday, November 20th, there were more book signings and major literary happenings than we’ve seen in a long time.  We tried our best to make a schedule and attend as many of these events as possible and thought we’d sum up our exploits for you with a photo gallery!

Alexei talked about a number of topics from writing to politics and even read several excerpts from his book. His passion for local literature and inspiring message about working hard and perfecting your craft or telling stories from different perspectives was well received by the audience and definitely by these two book bloggers.

We took some video of his readings. Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube account to keep up to date on all the literary videos we upload and link to.

We hope this inspires you to attend a literary event in the future to help support our local authors, illustrators and publishers!

To keep up to date with literary events, follow us on Twitter and Facebook, read our Book End posts every Friday morning highlighting the weekend’s literary/library events, and consistently check out our Event Calendar where we try to post all the events happening every day.
