Steamboat's Literary Sojourn

Posted on August 27th, 2009 in Community Bookmark and Share

The Literary Sojourn is an annual gathering of authors and book lovers. Each year, 500 readers from all over the country gather in Steamboat Springs to meet the creators of their favorite books and celebrate the joy and inspiration of books and readings.

This year is the 17th annual Literary Sojourn festival of authors. On October 10, 2009 at the Sheraton Steamboat Resort will host readers and a line up of prestigious authors including Richard Bausch, John Darnton, Amitav Ghosh, Linda Hogan and Jayne Anne Phillips. The day begins with a lavish buffet and ends with authors signing copies of their books.

The Literary Sojourn is organized under the auspices of the Bud Werner Memorial Library. Literary Sojourn is a non-profit event dependent upon the efforts of volunteers, generous sponsors and individual donors. It has garnered national attention for such events and has become a prestigious invitation for authors to receive.

Local, Prudential Steamboat broker Vicky Hanna has attended several of these literary gatherings and continues to support their tremendous efforts.  If you are interested in learning more, you can reach her at vicky@prusteamboat.com.
