Think of it as the South By Southwest of Authors...
The Texas Book Festival takes place in Austin, Saturday & Sunday November 4th & 5th and its mission is to connect authors and readers through experiences that celebrate the culture of literacy, ideas, and imagination.
This year's Festival got a big boost with the addition of Hollywood A-lister Tom Hanks.
Hanks is set to appear 11/4 at 4:30pm with his new collection of stories, Uncommon Type, in conversation with Pulitzer Prize-winning Texas author Lawrence Wright.
Unfortunately there are no more tickets to see Tom, they sold out very quickly.
