One of the most fun parts of my job is shopping for new books for the store. I travel all over the US searching through warehouses, attending trade shows, meeting with publishers to bring you the best books they have to offer at the best prices I can get.
Sophia Raday is an author. She wrote 'Love in Condition Yellow'. When she called the store and mentioned that she would be in town and was wondering if she could come in and do a reading I was guarded. Readings and signings do not do well in my store unless the author brings along their own fan club.
"Sure", I replied as I pulled out the calendar to pencil her in.
"Can I bring wine and cheese"?
I answered with an emphatic, "YES"!

Hi all... I am back from my trip to TN with exciting news! I met up with Julie Winklestein, a grad student at the University of Tennessee. Julie gathers books together and hands them out for FREE at weekend events for RAM (Rural America... www.ramusa.org). This past May she went through 300 books in one day!!! Mostly children's books with a few for young adults and even fewer for adults. After talking to Julie for 2 hours in a local coffee shop I made the commitment to deliver 1,000 new children's books (yes, that's right... 1,000) at the July 2010 event in Wise, VA.
