Utah Book Month 2015: Utah Authors, A Photo Essay



As you all already know, I manage to get out to a ton of author events throughout the year, most of them being in support of Utah authors. Even though I've posted these all before, I thought putting them altogether in celebration of Utah authors this week would be fun.

So here, once again, are all the Utah authors I've come in contact with since last year's Utah Books Month! Do know that a ton more events happened that I didn't make it to, sadly. But seriously, I can't get to all of them!
