Local Literati Will Bloom at Apple Blossom Festival Williamson

Williamson's Apple Blossom Festival, a May tradition in Wayne County for a half century, this year has adopted “Books In Blossom” as a theme and includes a mid-week literary happening. On 12 May 2010 a day long series of presentations of local authors, organized by Jane VerDow and others at the Williamson library, will celebrate regional literature, its creation, enjoyment, and impacts on the
area. Authors will read, discuss, and take questions on their books.


Wolcott's Susan Peterson Gateley, an artisan publisher who uses Whiskey Hill Press as her imprint for local works on Lake Ontario, will answer questions on the art and business of regional literature and artisan publishing at the Williamson Library at 10:30 am. Gateley has authored five full length nonfiction books and five shorter works since 1995. She estimates she has sold about 5500 copies of her various titles and currently has four books in print. Whiskey Hill Press has offered regular softcover books and e books as downloads through on line store since 2005 and distributes books to various specialty shops and book stores between Toronto and Watertown, NY.
