Public registration is open!

We've made it! An Austin Author Affair is now open to YOU! That's right. It's the reader's turn to kick up their heels and check out what this new event has in store!

Here's the scoop. Below is the link that will take you to the registration page. This is what you need to know:

The signing is FREE! So why do I need a ticket? 

Two reasons. If you're staying at the lovely hotel, that information will be sent to the email you provide for your registration. If you're not staying at the hotel, it helps us better prepare for you!

The evening event, the karaoke party, is not free. Why isn't it free?

The admission cost for this event will cover the entertainment, bar, food and drinks for the evening.

I can register, why can't I reserve my room yet?

The rooms will be made public later in the summer. Thus the need for the email at registration. We won't be able to reach you if we don't have an email.

If you have more questions, please check out the FAQ page, or contact an admin. Can't wait to see you there!
