Each year, the South Dakota Festival of Books features more than 50 presenters who speak about their work during solo presentations and panels. The lineup includes writers from various genres, including fiction, non-fiction, history/tribal, poetry, children’s/YA, and writers’ support.

 

Once the authors are chosen for this year's Festival, they will be listed below. The 2020 Festival will be in Brookings Oct. 2-4. 

 

Festival presenters are selected via a competitive process for a limited number of slots, with decisions made between January and May. If you are an author who is interested in being considered to present at the 2020 festival, please complete and return the application (Word or PDF) no later than May 1.
