Arianna Huffington and . . . The Indigo Girls?

Where else but in Atlanta's quirky eclectic community of Decatur could you find a literary event headlined by Arianna Huffington and Emily Saliers?

Hundreds of authors will come together for the first-ever, three-day Decatur Book Festival on Sept. 1-3. Here are few of the other attendees scheduled to appear:

• Michael Connelly - best-selling mystery and thriller writer
• Edward P. Jones - Pulitzer Prize winner, author of The Known World
• Steve Berry - The Amber Room, The Templar Legacy
• Toure - Rolling Stone Magazine, BET, CNN
• Robert Olen Butler - Pulitzer Prize winner, A Good Scent From a Strange Mountain
• Connie May Fowler - Before Women had Wings
• Terry Kay - To Dance with a White Dog
• Roy Blount Jr. - author/screenwriter/humorist
  

So here's what else is planned: cooking demos with cooking authors, barbecue, fireworks, music, poetry, book signing and a lot of other happenings.
