Berkeley hosted the Bay Area Book Festival. It was the first time I was able to go in a couple of years. There was no one famous but a lot of local authors there.
There were people selling things related books:
It was a great time and I really enjoyed meeting a bunch of talented local people.

It must have been refreshing to return to the Bay Area Book Festival and enjoy the lively atmosphere, especially with local authors and all the creative book-related treasures on display.
ReplyDelete...I've heard that there is an interest in typewriters these days!
ReplyDeleteThat's a funny looking pickle, I do remember Julia Child on tv in the early 1980s.
ReplyDeleteThat does sound fun!
ReplyDeleteThe book festival is a such a wonderful event.
ReplyDeletePickle RIck! 😹
Happy WW and hope you have a wonderful week.
How fun. I would have enjoyed visiting this book festival. I've typed on an Underwood typewriter just like that one. I'm old.

ReplyDeleteThat sounds fun - we just had our writers festival, but that has more formal talks and and they sell the authors books in the foyer but this looks like you might find some old gems! #Allseasons
ReplyDeleteI've not been to a book festival for years - this one looks great!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds so fun!

ReplyDeleteReally sounds like fun. The "Lord of the Strings" cracked me up (I have a lord and a lady here)!
ReplyDeleteNever been to a book festival, sounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteAh, I'm hoping I'll get to go next year if they did it again! I've never been and unfortunately was too booked up for that weekend this year!
