We appreciate your continuing support of ALPHA and are happy to share that our annual A Day of Authors event on April 6th, 2024 was a great success. This was our 31st year of hosting this wonderful, local event.
Our keynote speakers were: NYT bestselling author, Robert Dugoni, who writes the acclaimed Tracy Crosswhite police series and NYT and Edgar award winning author, Lee Goldberg known for both his novels and for producing and writing of many TV shows, including Diagnosis Murder.
Our breakout authors included Lian Dolan, writer and producer/host of the Satellite Sisters podcast, Shilpi Somaya Gowda, NYT bestselling fiction author, Sarah James, international bestselling “twisty” historical fiction writer, Autumn Krause, Fullerton young adult author and Andrea Lankford, former National Park Service Ranger and non-fiction writer.
In our 31st year of holding our A Day of Authors event, we continued to attract authors of distinction. Our past authors include Elizabeth George, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Gregg Hurwitz, Craig Johnson, Laura Lippman, Lisa See and many more. Please see the full list here.
ALPHA members both give back to our local communities and know how to have fun! We even have our own book club! We’d love to hear from you. Whether you are a supporter or would like to join us, please do not hesitate to communicate with us via email at alpha.fullerton@yahoo.com or on our Facebook pages, A Day of Authors or Alpha of Fullerton.
