The RV Book Fair 2025 - Day 11- December 18th

Day 11 at The RV Book Fair 2025: Let’s Celebrate

Day 11 of The RV Book Fair 2025 brings meaningful conversations and inspiring voices as we approach the final day of this global literary celebration. Today, WorldAuthors features a special Panel Discussion with Lauren Gibbons Paul and Melissa Morelli Lacroix, opened by author Neal Engstrom.

Neal Engstrom introduces the panel while highlighting the core ideas behind his book, Your LifePath, a life guide that describes five stages we pass through after finishing our schooling—Adventures, Mission, Family, Tribe, and Legacy. Through these stages, Neal explains how individuals can achieve self-fulfillment while also making meaningful contributions to others, setting a reflective and purposeful tone for the discussion.

Lauren Gibbons Paul, author of The Steps Between Us, shares insights into crafting emotionally authentic fiction shaped by family dynamics and personal growth, drawing on her background in journalism.

Melissa Morelli Lacroix—pianist, poet, and author of Song of Songs—speaks about how music and memory influence her storytelling, particularly in narratives that span generations. Together, their conversation embodies the emotional depth and creative diversity celebrated at the fair.

Today’s programming also includes the Listen Blurb, featuring Gary Smith discussing his latest book, More Than You Know, and The RV Online Features, which spotlightes Mike Nelson, continuing the fair’s mission to amplify diverse literary voices.

With tomorrow marking the final day of The RV Book Fair 2025, today is a moment to celebrate the stories, ideas, and connections that have brought this community together. Let’s enjoy Day 11 and get ready for a memorable finale.
