There are mystery writers, acclaimed bestselling and debut novelists, poets, biographers,\u00a0chefs and children&#8217;s authors. Every author on the program takes part in a session, either a solo reading or a panel discussion, followed by a book signing in the Author Signing Colonnade. Books by all the participating authors are available for sale at Festival book sales area, where proceeds support the Festival.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also entertainment throughout the weekend.\u00a0 The <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/chapter16.org\"><em>Chapter 16<\/em><\/a><\/strong> Stage highlights readings and other literary performances. The Caf\u00e9 Stage features music by some of the area&#8217;s most talented songwriters and poets. Children events take place on the Youth Stage, with appearances by favorite characters, musicians, artists, and storytellers.<\/p>\n<p>For NPT, the Festival is a golden opportunity to grab numerous nationally recognized authors for our popular show, <em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wnpt.org\/productions\/wow\/\" target=\"_blank\">A Word on Words with John Seigenthaler<\/a><\/strong>.<\/em> Seigenthaler&#8217;s capacity to absorb books and interview authors is always something to behold, but on this weekend, he truly amazes.
