To the Tennessee Birding and Library Communities:
 
This coming weekend, October 10-12, the Southern Festival of  Books (SFB) 
returns to Nashville (for good, I understand).  The Arts  and Entertainment 
section of yesterday's (Nashville) Tennessean described it  well:
 
"Celebrating its 20th anniversary, the Southern Festival of  Books brings 
more than 250 authors from all over the United States to  Nashville's War 
Memorial Plaza this week.  From prize-winning journalists  and historians to 
renowned 
novelists and writers of young adult fiction,  Humanities Tennessee's annual 
Celebration of the Word has something for  everyone, including plenty of 
panels and readings featuring local and regional  authors."
 
Of special interest to birders will be Richard Modlin  discussing his book 
Chasing Wings: Birding Exploits and Encounters, which  will take place at 
3:00-4:00 p.m. Saturday, October 11, in the Capitol  Library.
 
But don't stop there; the SFB offers a staggering array of  sessions on many 
subjects, beginning at noon on Friday and continuing through  Sunday 
afternoon.  And it's all free--although contributions are warmly  welcomed.
