More consolidation in Publishing is not good news for writers, readers, booksellers, and those who work in the industry. In my humble opinion. https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/publisher-news/articl...

The line to check out at the Changing Hands sale. This is about mid point from the end.

CrowCAH Wow that‘s great to see! 6y

Leftcoastzen @CrowCAH and since there‘s cards, used books and remainder books you can have a small budget and enjoy the sale. 6y

I️ can‘t recommend this book highly enough. It‘s exciting, informative, funny, honest, and forthright, and I️ can‘t wait to shove it into the hands of bookseller friends. Even having been updated 7 years ago, there‘s so much still so very relevant to bookselling today. I️ found myself feeling very validated, better informed, and empowered, and I️ heartily urge all bookstore owners, managers, and anyone interested in the profession to get a copy!

Leftcoastzen I loved that book ! A lot of great information. 6y

underground_bks @Leftcoastzen I‘m so glad I️ found out about it from a bookseller I️ met at Winter Institute! From the title alone,8 probably wouldn‘t have picked it up, but it‘s deeper and more personal than it looks. Also the endnotes are brilliant in and of themselves! 6y

Any other #booksellers heading to Memphis for #wi13?
Please forgive my very messy bedroom! I'm both busy and full of shame.

Tamra No shame allowed. 7y

Reecaspieces Ok what is wi13. I do not live far from Memphis so what am I missing. And safe travels. 7y

everlocalwest @Reecaspieces #wi13 is the tag for Winter Institute which is basically a few days of bookseller school. It's amazing! There are panels and roundtables for booksellers to share ideas. There are authors and publishers promoting new books. It's a wonderland. 7y

BookNAround Drats! I‘ve gone the past two years but not going this year (although I went as an exhibitor rather than a bookseller). 7y

everlocalwest @BookNAround Bummer! I'm sorry we won't be able to connect. We'll always have Litsy. 😉 7y

MCYmermaid I am in Memphis — see you soon? 7y

everlocalwest @MCYmermaid Yes! I'll keep be on the look out for mermaids and Maryelizabeths! Heading to mingle as I type... 7y

This is a poster at my new favorite #indie bookstore. So completely hysterical. Then I succumbed and bought a whole bunch of great books. But you knew I would say that! 😜

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Lmstraubie @Leftcoastzen @freyaheart @Mariposa_Bookworm I wasn't clear earlier - this was a poster, not an actual book! Still, it's so funny. 🤣🤣 8y

Mariposa_Bookworm Oooo I wonder if I could find the poster online? I love the Pulp novel look. 8y

Lmstraubie Still funny & would make an interesting book 😉 8y

freyaheart I thought it was a book lol 8y
