FORT MYERS, Fla. The state’s largest one-day reading festival is quickly approaching.

The Southwest Florida Reading Festival brings top tier authors to Fort Myers every March.

WINK News sat down with festival coordinator Margie Byers and cartoonist Doug Macgregor to learn more about the event.

Byers says the large turnout every year is why the festival is ranked one of the best events in the nation.
