“Why the hell can Columbia, South Carolina, have a really decent book festival and Atlanta, Georgia, cannot?”

Decatur Metro | August 29, 2009

Access Atlanta has a splendid article about the upcoming Decatur Book Festival with extensive interviews with festival founders Daren Wang and Tom Bell.

If you’re a book festival junkie, there’s probably not much in this article that you haven’t read before.  However, my love of speculation requires that I point out that Wang and Bell state in the article that they can easily see the DBF attendance rate doubling before Decatur hits any sort of capacity.

That’s 150,000 people.
