Art Fiction Gala hosted by Lucie Smoker
Does your fiction promote the visual arts--through featuring
an artist, painting, sculpture, performance art, etc? Then, consider entering
Lucie's Art Fiction Gala.
The Art Fiction Gala is a virtual celebration of fiction
that highlights the visual arts. Dress up in your finest, pick up some
friends--a bottle of wine--and sample mind-blowing fiction that crosses the
line between literary and visual art. Plus a gallery of art featuring reading.
Three Wishes hosted by Kirstin Pulioff

choices?"

Ways to
Help:
Donate to the
Blogger Book Fair via the BBF
Donation Fund. To help get the word out about BBF, we would like to
place ads on Facebook, Goodreads and other places, but to do, so we need a
little help. We'd also like to have some BBF sponsored giveaways, so money
donated would also go toward prizes. NO MONEY WILL BE KEPT BY ANY ORGANIZER OR
PARTICIPANT.
Spread the word! Share the
Fair on your social media accounts and show off the Blogger Book Fair logo in
your blog's sidebar.
