Event Preview: Sci-Fi Authorfest III Book Signing at Powell's Books Cedar Hills Crossing

There are a bunch of sci fi authors in town this weekend for OryCon, and if you weren’t able to make it down to the conference you still have a chance to meet and greet 18 of those authors who will be at the Powell’s Books at Cedar Hills Crossing store tomorrow (11-29) at 4:00 as part of the third annual Sci-Fi Authorfest Book Signing.  This event coupled with the Writer’s Faire on Tuesday gives Portland book lovers ample opportunity to support local authors, and get your books signed while you are doing so.

A majority of the authors signing at the Authorfest are from Oregon, and all of them are from the Northwest.  The list of attendees includes:

• Lilith Saintcrow (Flesh Circus, Orbit)
