We co-sponsor this special weekend with the Valley Bookseller in Stillwater, Minnesota. Every year, we offer a list of books (an eclectic mix of fiction, mystery, and story collections) by Minnesota authors — and, we invite two authors to be our featured guests each year. On Friday and Saturday, choose among a variety of facilitated discussions covering the books on the reading list, and in the late afternoon, attend a presentation and book signing with the featured authors.

We are delighted to announce that Larry Watson and Wendy Webb will be our featured authors for Books in the Woods 2013.
