NETWORKING
:

In addition to two days of valuable information, FAPAcon2021 attendees should also plan to attend the Friday evening Pool Party where you can join your fellow conference attendees for a casual social get-together designed to give you an opportunity to mingle and network with old and new friends.

The President’s Annual Book Awards Celebration is on Saturday night. It’s an exciting night of celebrating the book award finalists and honoring the people who are making a difference in our publishing community. Please note that this year, FAPA has switched from a sit-down banquet to a more affordable heavy hors d’oeuvres menu to accompany our celebration of our esteemed book award winners.

So… bring your questions. Bring your enthusiasm. And plenty of business cards so you can make some valuable connections. Remember, there’s no need to go it alone when you’re with FAPA!

We’ll be back next Monday with more information on keynote speaker Steve Berry in Hallard Press Gazette.
