    All About Grayslake AuthorFest 2026!

    Today’s episode is a special one: we’re talking about Grayslake AuthorFest 2026! Author and event co-founder, Zee Lacson joined the podcast to tell everyone about the coolest book event in Grayslake, Illinois that takes place 11 am- 4 pm on Saturday, July 18th and it’s location is at the Grayslake Heritage Center & Museum. What will you find at AuthorFest this year? “There are more than 50 authors, bookish vendors, author panels, workshops, bookmark making, caricatures, typewriter poetry, a selfie station ... and a day of literary joy.” This episode expands on what you're find and experiences you can participate in (I'm excited the most for the typewriter poetry and the community book exchange!) I’ll also be there, doing my first ever Portable Podcast (which is what I’m calling it) and I will be interviewing authors, vendors, and readers alike. It will be a recorded podcast so it will be put up on streaming platforms in the coming weeks! See you all there!
