St. Thomas 2008 - Literary Excursion in Paradise Reply with quote
AN INVITE TO BOOK CLUBS & AUTHORS!
PARTY IN PARADISE!


Greetings! My name is Sharon Russ and I am one of the co-founders of Words of Inspiration Book Club in Atlanta. Our book club is hosting a literary event to St. Thomas in the summer of 2008. This trip will prove to be a networking opportunity to allow authors to build and strengthen the bonds with their current and future fan base and a networking opportunity for individuals that are looking to get together with some folks and have a good time in an exotic location. We have extended this invite to book clubs, social groups and church groups nationally and singles looking to mingle, couples looking to take a time out on the beach and males and females that are looking to reunite with friends old and new to party in the Caribbean. A great time will be had by all. Do not miss out! This is a great chance for educated, intelligent and talented men and women to create a positive, fun, exciting, adventurous forum in paradise. Read on for further info.

The total package includes:
Gift Bag upon arrival from the resort
Author Meet & Greet plus book signings/discussions
Welcome Gift from St. Thomas Tourism Board
