Our
Legacy
The 2026 SouthWest Writers Book Fiesta
Libros of Enchantment is brought to you by SouthWest Writers, an Albuquerque-based nonprofit organization with one goal: we are writers helping writers. We offer programs multiple times a month for writers of all genres and skill levels to attend and learn about the craft and business of writing.
Why Attend the Book Fiesta?
For Writers
Learn from some of the most talented writers in the Southwest, connect with readers and other writers, sell your books or buy the books of others. In essence, come connect with other people who love the same things you do: Books!
For Readers
Discover your next great read. Meet local writing talent, get your books signed by your favorite authors, and celebrate the magic of storytelling by attending our speaker and panel presentations.
