What do a personal finance guru, an acclaimed music journalist and the founders of an indie record label have in common? They’re not only exceptional authors of ours, but they’re also joining the massive gathering of music and tech-junkies also known as South by Southwest (SXSW).
Held in Austin every spring, SXSW is a festival that merges the arts (namely film and music) with the latest in interactive technology (think Twitter on steroids). Bloggers, artists, musicians, and journalists meet to share ideas with their cohorts, submerge themselves in new music and be surrounded by the most tech-savvy of our generation.
Here’s what Ramit Sethi, Jessica Hopper, Mac McCaughan and Laura Ballance have planned:
Ramit Sethi, author of I Will Teach You to Be Rich will be presenting at the interactive panel Building A Bulletproof Personal-Finance System on Saturday, March 13 at 11am, at The Hilton G by the Austin Convention Center. Click here for more details.
Following will be a book signing at 1:50pm at the South By BookStore, top floor of the Austin Convention Center.
Jessica Hopper, author of The Girls Guide to Rocking will be reading from and signing copies of her book on Saturday, March 20, 3pm, at Domy Books (913 E. Cesar Chavez). Click here for more details.
