"The Tattered Cover offers a wide variety of ideas presented in the form of author events—over five hundred each year—including the very literary, thought provoking, humorous, topical, educational, controversial, and political, to name just a few," Meskis says.

We can provide the venue, the publisher can provide a few dollars to advertise the event, but in the end it’s the author who is the draw."
