2022 National Book Festival - Panel and Signing (in-person)

  • Washington Convention Center United States of America (map)

The 2022 Library of Congress National Book Festival returns to live audiences this Labor Day weekend for the first time in three years, bringing celebrities and cult favorites back to Washington for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic shut down live events across the nation’s capital.

The one-day, all-day festival — Saturday, Sept. 3, from 9 a.m. until 8 p.m. — will feature more than 120 authors, poets and writers under the theme of “Books Bring Us Together” at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C.


I’ll be on a panel and will be signing copies of THE SLEEPLESS, and I’ll be roaming the festival grounds all day. Catch me at the Washington Convention Center at these events:

10:00 - 11:00 am, Science Fiction & Fantasy stage, West Salon GHI (Street Level, South Building)

Panel: Memories, Maladies, Mysteries and Murders with Rob Hart

What do you do when you can’t trust your memories and people are dying? Keep looking for answers! In Rob Hart’s “The Paradox Hotel,” January Cole, security director at a time traveler hotel, finds a body no one can see, and in Victor Manibo’s debut, “The Sleepless,” journalist Jamie Vega is the main suspect for a suspicious suicide he’s investigating.

11:30 am - 12:30 pm, Hall C, Book Signing Line #4

Book Signing; copies of The Sleepless will be available for sale for those who don’t have their copy yet

See you there!
