The Gazette-Journal invites local authors of books in all genres to participate in an upcoming fair, A Day with Words, to be held from 1-4 p.m. on Thursday, June 21, at the paper’s offices on Main Street in Gloucester.

More than 40 authors have already signed up to participate, but there is room for more. Authors will be asked to fill out a registration form and include information about themselves, their writing, the books they will have available to sell, and any special physical or dietary needs.

Registration forms are available at Gazette-Journal offices on Main Street in Gloucester or on Court Street in Mathews. They are also available via e-mail.

For forms or more information, contact publisher Elsa Verbyla at everbyla@gazettejournal.net or 804-693-3101. ...
