Even though the 蜜柚直播 Festival of Books was canceled, there鈥檚 still a chance to hear from some of your favorite authors.
The festival has created a Facebook Live Author Series, and while you may not see every author you hoped to in person this spring, this certainly takes a little of the sting out of missing the real deal.
On May 20, the bestselling author of 鈥淎 Dog鈥檚 Purpose,鈥 鈥淎 Dog鈥檚 Way Home鈥 and 鈥淎 Dog鈥檚 Journey,鈥 W. Bruce Cameron will participate in a Facebook Live event at 3 p.m. All three of the titles are now motion pictures. His new book is 鈥淎 Dog鈥檚 Promise.鈥
Ginger Gaffney will appear in a Facebook Live presentation at 3 p.m. May 27. Gaffney wrote 鈥淗alf Broke,鈥 and is a top-ranked horse trainer.
Watch the events live at and get information on upcoming events in the series. Past videos from the series are available at .
