SUMMARY:Key West Literary Seminar—Key West\, Florida
DESCRIPTION:The Key West Literary Seminar is a four-day literary celebration that explores a different theme each year. In January 2026\, we’ll focus on the novel.

SUMMARY:Word of South: A Festival of Literature and Music - Tallahassee\, FL

We’re especially proud of our “mu-aushups”: authors and musicians appearing together (some of whom have never met)\, as well as our cookbook authors\, kids programming and musical performances of every genre–we’ve got gospel and HipHop\, pop and bluegrass\, jazz and country\, Americana and R&B. Bring the whole family\, and come see what’s down South!
