On NOVEMBER 19 & 20, I’ll be attending the Chicago Book Expo at the Uptown Goldblatt's Building. How fitting that this event, with over 40 participating Chicago fiction & poetry presses, will be hosted at the former Borders Books location to become a grand pop-up bookstore.

Join me Saturday 10am-6pm or Sunday 12pm-6pm at the 20,000 square foot historic structure and meet authors & publishers and get your read-on and buy some books!

There will be a special after-party with a performance by Joan of Arc and you can click here to see when and where this TBA show will be.

Uptown Goldblatt's Building (former Borders Books)
     4720 N. Broadway

Not only will you be able to check out the Uptown Goldblatt’s Building, you will be able to see the Uptown Broadway Building at 4701 N. Broadway which was rumored to be a Speakeasy!

Click here for more information. All Chicago Book Exp primary events are free and open to the public.
