October Events! If you're in northeastern PA or the surroundings areas, I hope to talk books with you this month!

#indiepub #indiepress #smallpress #bookcommunity #bookeditor #writingcommunity #booksky #writersky #nepa #smallbusiness

📆Where will Nicole Frail Edits & Nicole Frail Books be in October?
On Saturday, stop by the Valley Community Library for their first Fall Fair at the Library! to shop local vendors and meet local authors and publishers. Entry is $5.
The next meeting of MAMA'S BOOKed: NEPA Moms Book Club will be Monday, September 6, at Long Live Playtime , and we're currently reading Weyward by Emilia Hart. If you're local and want to join, message me and I'll invite you to our FB group!
Then there's our monthly networking meeting for (the organization formerly known as) Wilkes-Barre Women's Organization for Networking at Rodano's on Public Square. All are welcome!
If you want to shop local but can't make it out to any of the markets in-person, join our Harvest & Holiday Virtual Event (Facebook Group), presented by Carly's Creative and Supportive Small Business Community, between October 10 and 12. My offerings will go live at 3:30 on the 10th.
And finally, we'll be at 2nd Annual Forty Fort Fall Fest on the 11th! Last year was fantastic, and I'm looking forward to seeing what this year brings.
Hoping to chat with many of you about what you're reading and writing this month! ✌️💜📖

I had originally wanted @andyoupress.bsky.social and @attic-ebooks.bsky.social to shine individually, but at the end of the day, this is the main account on IG and FB, so it makes sense to be here, too. Hang on while I get myself up and running! #booksky #authorsky
