The two-day event will include panel discussions, masterclasses and workshops for book lovers, authors and publishers. As you&rsquo;re reading this, Litomania on Wheels will be ready to roll out. This segment will be conducted on a moving heritage bus (it departs from Ramada Hotel, Juhu at 5 pm). Romance fiction author Ravinder Singh will read out a chapter from his to-be-released novel and reveal a few characters on the bus, as well.
Also, watch out for masterclasses by authors such as Ashwin Sanghi and Ravi Subramanian where they will share tips on how to write a book, while Preeti Vyas will talk on understanding the publishing process. Caleb Franklin will share his journey from books to movies.
Around 2,000 people are expected to attend the two-day event. A new platform called Young Literature Bloggers will be launched to target student book bloggers. These book-bloggers will get access to books for a review, before they have been released to the masses.
