The Reading Divas will host their 6th annual Black Authors & Readers Rock Weekend this October 18, 2013.  In 2008, The Reading Divas celebrated their 10th anniversary with the first Black Authors & Readers Rock Weekend with author Mary Monroe as the first speaker.  The weekend will kick off with a Men in Literature reception and an Author Expo on Saturday morning.  Participating author, Austin S. Camacho says, “ Before the Readers Rock Weekend these were all strangers.  Now I call half a dozen of them my friends.  That alone made it worth being there!”  

                                     Schedule of Events           Purchase Tickets

It is my hopes to connect new authors with each other and to introduce you to participating authors by featuring each author up to the day of the event.  Thanks for your interest in literature and being a part of my writing journey!

It's so great to have an event where authors can get together and readers can meet authors and find out about their books. We need to keep reading and books alive.
