Local Authors and so much more at Penned Con
Brad R. Cook
PENNED
CON 2016, is a book fair featuring over 150 authors from across the country and
locally from Missouri and Illinois. The event takes place on September 23 and
24, 2016 and offers a chance to learn from industry leaders about how to
publish, market and grow your brand, join us for our keynote speakers, join in
with games hosted by authors, panels, a luau awards ceremony and more! Penned
Con is all about charity too, 100% of their profits from the event go to Action
for Autism based in St. Louis. Since starting Penned Con in 2014 they have donated
over $21,000 to the Penned Con Scholarship Fund and helped 6 families in the
St. Louis area with therapy services.
