Expos, eh?

Looks like Book Expo Canada is no more, and that the proposed fall event in Toronto aimed at the general book-buying public is also a no-go

Kindling Words is definitely sounding good to me too!

Wow. Thanks for posting that about Book Expo. I had no idea. Sad times indeed.

I went to the CANSCAIP fall conference a couple years ago--it was quite well attended and a few well-known authors (Kenneth Oppel, Carol Matas). In terms of publicity and getting your name out, I suspect you're best off if you can arrange to be a presenter. There wasn't a whole lot of chance to mingle. There did seem to be a fairly good mix of topics aimed at unpublished authors and published authors.

Kindling Words looked wonderful!

Wow, I'm stunned. I can't believe there's not going to be a BEC. I hope it's just for this year because of the economy and not like forever. :(
