Hi there,
This is Carnie the Bookworm
and I’m Toi Thomas. 
Together we’ve decided to attempt a great feat. We want to host a fan-fueled book fair in Hampton Roads, VA, sometime in the near future. Our aim is to build up a book loving community and finance the event through donations, sponsorships, and more. Since this is an entirely new endeavor for me and Carnie, we are keeping our hopes high but are remaining grounded, as we do so
We’d love to see the first ever Lit Carnivale launch in the fall of 2021, but as long as we are etching closer to this dream, we’ll launch whenever this community is ready for it.
We do so hope you will look around our blog and consider joining us on our journey. Here are three easy ways to hop on board.
1. Consider signing up for our save the date email list. This is a very simple email list. You sign up once and will only ever receive three emails: a “Save the Date” message when the event date is announced, a “Get your ticket now” message when tickets are available, and an “Event Reminder” the day before the event.
That’s it; 3 simple emails.

2. Consider following this blog to keep up to date with the development of this endeavor OR visit the Contact page to find a following platform that suits you best…Oh, and share, share, share, everywhere!
3. Lastly, go ahead and show your support by donating to this cause. While we’d love to offer you a tax deduction for your support, the money we will raise is not tax deductible (visit our FAQ page to learn why). Still, we hope you will consider helping us make this dream, a book fair in Hampton Roads, a reality by offering your financial support. Any amount will help. *We also have sponsorship opportunities for those interested.*
So, what do you think of this idea? Let us know in the comments.
Until next time, I hope you love books as much as #carnieluvsboox.
