Memories of the London Book Fair

May 18, 2016 by Helena Halme Leave a Comment

It’s a month or so since the hustle and bustle of The London Book Fair, and I have just about recovered. As usual it was a very busy time for me, catching up with fellow ALLi indie authors, attending seminars, meeting new and interesting fellow book people (most memorably sharing a sandwich with a new friend, David P Perlmutter), and meeting up with some of the Finnish literary contingency, such as the folks at FILI and Stilton Literary Agency.

There were drinks dos, parties sponsored by Amazon (I know, right?), and a lot of selfies …

Towards the end of the LBF week I was interviewed by Kobo, the online book retailer. I’m joined in this clip by brilliant indie authors, Clare Flynn, Chele Cook, Eliza Green, Karen Inglis, Rohan Quine, Clare Lydon and Margaret Skea.

I’m already looking forward to LBF 2017. If you can’t wait that long, or missed the action in London, you can join the Indie Author Fringe events online, which cover The London Book Fair, Book Expo America and The Frankfurt Book Fair. Sign up here and get access to blogs, podcasts, video tutorials, interviews, competitions and much more.
