Written By Melissa DiMaiella

We have some exciting news to share! Lehigh Valley Literary Magazine is participating in the Third Annual Easton Book Festival this coming Saturday, October 23rd and reading poetry and short stories at 3:30pm in the tent outside Book & Puppet Company! Find our table anytime between 10:00am-5pm at Centre Square, where we’ll be selling prints and accepting submissions for book reviews. If you are an author and would like your book reviewed by the magazine and featured on our website and social media outlets, drop it off between 10:00am and 3:00pm. At 3:30pm, we’ll announce which books we’ve selected for review and the new theme(s) for the second issue. Then, Kristin Ivey and I will read poetry and short stories from the first issue and some new material that has never before been published!

The Easton Book Festival, which began this past Friday, October 16th, runs through Sunday, October 24th, and we’re thrilled to be included among the talented authors on the program at this 8-day festival! To show your support for the literary magazine, stop by on Saturday or contact me via Email at editor@lvliterature.org for more information.

See you there! It’s FREE to attend!
