This year, Savant Books and Publications commissioned a Sunday booth for the May 2015 Hawaii Book and Music Festival. Sharing a tent with Aignos Publishing, Malia Elliott of Leon and Malia Productions made a cameo appearance, much to the delight of visitors. Leon and Malia are recording artists for whom Savant Books and Publications has produced Malia's LULLABY MOON (Savant 2014) music CD, with the KEIKI CLALABASH CD and DVD soon to follow. Leon and Malia are also Savant Distribution clients for their ever-popular Waikiki music CD, BOAT DAYS/TROPIC NIGHTS.



Savant author's Daniel S. Janik, Setsuko Tsuchiya and Zachary M. Oliver also appeared at our booth, publicizing their works, A WHALE'S TALE (Savant 2009)/THE TURTLE DANCES (Savant 2013), IN SEARCH OF SOMATIC THERAPY (Savant, in preparation), and FALLING BUT FULFILLED (Savant 2010) respectively.

All Savant Books and Publications were on display "for sale" using our mobile book store venue, currently supporting Savant Bookstore Honolulu at Hawaii Kai Retirement Center, Fridays from 1 to 4 p.m.

While the venue didn't result in any sales to speak of, four authors introduced themselves and got to meet directly with Savant Books and Publications staff. All commented positively on Savant's unique approach to traditional publishing.
