I left for London for a book tour on Monday after Literary Sojourn. It's lovely, but I keep thinking I could be in Steamboat...

Thank you for such a wonderful event…for bringing together readers & writers so warmly and so intelligently.

What a fantastic & memorable weekend. It really doesn't get any better for an author. A true love fest.

I loved being here in my community of readers and writers. I need to be inspired and re-inspired constantly by other authors, reminding me it is possible to do this task we do.

Literary Sojourn remains one of my all-time favorite book events! You do a marvelous thing for readers and writers.

I had an incredible time in Steamboat Springs. Great crowd, and the event was expertly run. Highly recommended.

The courtesy was top drawer, the arrangements impeccable, the site out of dreamscape, and the audience was made up of readers. What more can an itinerant author want?

The best show in the West—this is one class act.

I'm in Miami this morning, at the tail end of the US tour for Station Eleven, and I have to tell you, when I look back at the tour the festival in Steamboat Springs stands out as such a highlight. It's a wonderful festival and I'm so happy that I had an opportunity to take part in it.

Never before have I seen readers open up to books in such a generous and inspiring manner.

Literary Sojourn is not only a opportunity to exchange ideas with other writers, eat good food, and meet with engaged readers—some of whom travel quite far—in a gorgeous setting. You also get to experience a singular day where literature is the most important thing in the room. I left Steamboat Springs energized and deeply grateful.

I loved you all, loved Steamboat Springs. I've done countless events over my nearly four decades of being a writer, but your Literary Sojourn was one of the handful of special highlights.
