As of July 23, author pitches are now closed.
We've an had extraordinary amount of interest in our Heartland Summer author events. Thank you! We received more than double the amount of pitches for the spots we have available.
The pandemic has shortened booksellers' timelines for making ordering decisions. To respect this situation, each of our author events features books coming out within a few weeks or months--and we chose NOT to place any 2021 authors in summer programming.
Due to the popularity of Heartland Summer, we're considering hosting a series of newly branded early 2021 author events to draw attention to Winter 2021 authors and connect them to our independent booksellers. Please stay tuned.

Author Placement OpportunitiesThe chance to meet authors and learn about their forthcoming book is one of the major draws of Heartland.
Heartland Summer is offering two main author placement opportunities as well as an interactive Exhibits Gallery and Rep Picks to collect and broadcast your promotional efforts. All events will be promoted heavily in our newsletters and supported by Edelweiss collections and ARC request forms. Author placement is available to publishers who become an exhibitor or a Heartland sponsor. Meet the Authors: $200 per author
