The Heartland Fall Forum is the premiere gathering place for those interested in independent bookstores throughout the Midwest. Hosted jointly by the Midwest Independent Booksellers Association and the Great Lakes Independent Booksellers Association, the conference represents 12 states and nearly 350 independent bookstores, from the far reaches of North Dakota to Ohio, from Kansas to the tip of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and all states in between.

Visit us at Booth 326 on Friday to meet two new authors and their books:

Dianna E. Anderson’s incisive Problematic: How Toxic Callout Culture Is Destroying Feminism (Potomac Books, 2018) takes on the stereotype of the perpetually dissatisfied feminist. Anderson will be participating in the Moveable Feast from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. on Thursday, October 4. Her signing will be on Friday, October 5 from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m.

On her way to a soccer game with a fellow teammate on August 1, 2007, Kimberly J. Brown experienced the collapse of the I-35W Bridge Collapse firsthand, falling 114 feet in her teammate’s car to the Mississippi River. Although terrified, injured, and in shock, she survived. In this sobering memoir and exposé, Brown recounts her harrowing experience in The I-35W Bridge Collapse: A Survivor’s Account of America’s Crumbling Infrastructure (Potomac Books, 2018). Her signing will be on Friday, October 5 from 11:00 a.m. to noon.

At Booth 326 you’ll also find some old favorites. Black Elk Speaks, Little Britches, and Whiskey Women will be featured as favorite backlist books. Stop by and look through some of our favorite regional titles and collect our new giveaway items!
