Every year a selection of shortlisted authors hit the road to promote the BC Book Prizes. The authors tours the province, connecting with students, librarians and community members throughout BC.
This is the first year that authors will be blogging while on tour. You can expect to see updates from the road, photos and more as the Tour travels the province.
While you’re waiting, have a look at photos of the 2007 Lieutenant Governor’s BC Book Prizes.
