Here's what our attendees had to say about it:
This is an outstanding event- The way authors are treated is exceptional. The easy access from hotel rooms or front door is a Godsend. It is great not to have to pay to park. Peoria has fantastic restaurants and the wait for the elevator was short. - Melanie Jayne
I'm so happy I choose WOTR for my first signing. Everything is so well organized, right down to the volunteers who came around. If you needed anything, they were great at helping out. But, the most important thing is that it's for an amazing cause, Thistle Farms. The message Doris gives is incredibly touching and brave. All of you ladies did a wonderful job!!! - Jennifer Daniels
This is the best event hands down. You can tell a lot of hard work goes into getting the word out and it shows. Keep up the excellent work! - Valerie Twombly
WOTR is my favorite signing event ever! It's always well-organized and geared toward fun for the authors as well as the readers! The awesome coordinators and their many helpful volunteers go out of their way to make this event as successful as it can be and to raise as much money as they can for charity. I'm so grateful to be a part of it! - Alison Bliss
