Now that we’re in our third year, we’re able to promise that 2009 will be even more exciting than our first two go-arounds.
We’re more focused than ever on bringing Brandon the very best in top-name authors, giving readings, answering questions, and interacting with readers — and local writers — in an intimate environment.
Words Alive 2009 promises to bring hundreds of book- and literature-lovers to downtown Brandon for a weekend filled with words. If you like books — or if you like live readings — you should plan to be here!
But the festival’s not all. Like writing? We’ve got another short story competition planned — and the winner gets published.
Check our website frequently — and bookmark us! — as we will continue to update, with new authors, and a schedule of fun events as we lead up to the festival.
Hope to see you there!

I love to read about words alive as I’m an amateur writer reading what others is doing is great, I write short stories, and poems and love to read, mostly murder mysteries and true crime, just keep the good work and I hope to some day maybe be one of the writers published by youl
MARVELOUS! I’ll have to bookmark this so that I don’t forget and so that I remember to attend!
BRAVO! This is GREAT for Brandon.
Let me know IF you need any volunteers or help with this. I am available. (phone number removed by editor for privacy)
