"Buy a book and stop a crook!"

What a great idea -- a book festival to promote literacy and cut crime rates! I just discovered the Book 'Em North Carolina Writers Conference and Book Fair, which features authors, publishers, and literary agents:

February 22, 2014
9:30 AM - 4:00 PM
ROBESON COMMUNITY COLLEGE
LUMBERTON, NORTH CAROLINA
FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC!
 
The goal of the Book 'Em Foundation is to "raise public awareness of the correlation between high illiteracy rates and high crime rates." There will also be arts and crafts and face painting for the kids, so bring the whole family!
