Around 60 authors are coming to the Kings Hall, Stoke, on 2 September to chat to readers and sign books in aid of two local charities.
Tales-on-Trent will see authors across many genres sit on organised panels, giving readers an insight into their works.
All profits from ticket sales and a raffle will be donated to local mental health charity, Changes, and Dougie Mac.
The event organiser, Claire Birkin, told Stoke Nub News: "I have always been a huge supporter of reading and promoting authors as I believe the benefits of reading are massive. It gives us empathy, understanding and an escape from the everyday.
"These events are always so friendly and this is a great opportunity to hold one in my home city which I love and also raise funds for charity."
The last event took place in May 2022 and over £600 was raised for Changes.
Confirmed authors include:
- Liz Mistry
- Diane Saxon
- Jon Richter
- D J Cook
- H A Robinson
- Hannah Lynn
- Michelle Kidd
- Conrad Jones
- Dave Jeffrey
- M L Rayner
Tickets are £5.00 plus booking fee and under 16s are free.
