The Goings-On: The authors will be reading from their latest novels and answering questions about their work (though no SPOILERS will be provided). The Four Seasons bookstore will be at the teahouse selling books, and there will be exclusive giveaways and prizes during the event.
Post-Tea: Those interested can promenade from Trinity Episcopal Church, W German St, Shepherdstown, WV 25443, down to the historic railway station.
