Decatur Book Fest: Billy Collins is a sellout

By Phil Kloer | Monday, August 25, 2008, 01:11 PM

And I mean sellout in the best possible way.

Collins, the former U.S. poet laureate, is the keynote speaker for the Decatur Book Festival Friday night at Agnes Scott College. Word from the festival organizers is that all of the free tickets have been given out, so there probably isn’t going to be much chance of just showing up and getting in.

I hear Collins is a wonderful speaker, in terms of reading his poems and entertaining the audience, so I’m looking forward to hearing him.

I will try to blog all week about the Decatur Book Fest, so keep coming back for updates.
