Nelson Cooke Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 My publishers will send me anywhere to hawk my new book, (Gus Openshaw's Whale-Killing Journal). As it's more maritimey than piratey (although one of the main characters is a pirate) in the market for decent maritime festivals, and would be much obliged if anyone tells me of one. Charleston, SC, is the only one on the docket so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Mermaid Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I dug through the boating magazine I work for to see if there is anything coming up. I've never been to any of these, so i don't know if they are good ones are not: Baltimore Waterfront Festival: April 27-30 (not sure if there is a website, I'm sure it will google) and the Maritime Folklife Festival in Solomons Maryland: May 6th (www.calvertmarinemuseum.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelson Cooke Posted March 24, 2006 Author Share Posted March 24, 2006 Jim-sib, I am going to Charleston, thanks. As for the others, my wench is due May 11, so I'm looking for stuff post-June 1 or so. I should've said that before. They both seem like great fests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
