I love to just pick up a book, read the back, and if it catches my interest, it's mine. I've never been one to really pay too much attention to what's hot. Until of course, I started focusing on becoming a writer (even then, although it's important, it's never a deciding factor when it comes to choosing a book).<br /><br />Have fun with the a-z challenge. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03300464291611313103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7296813168362445740.post-90416577659565416972013-04-02T18:47:59.187-04:002013-04-02T18:47:59.187-04:00I have to travel a bit to get to a bookstore but I...I have to travel a bit to get to a bookstore but I do LOVE spending my time there.<br />Denise at Organization and Inspiration for Fellow Writers, participant of A to Z Blogging ChallengeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7296813168362445740.post-88779044346426571732013-04-02T17:53:46.679-04:002013-04-02T17:53:46.679-04:00I miss the accessibility of bookstores since Borde...I miss the accessibility of bookstores since Borders shut down. Thankfully, I have a wonderful indie fairly nearby, but it's a deliberate trip to get to that side of town. Still, I love to browse. I'm usually looking for a list of specifics, but I like seeing what's out there. <br /><br />Hope you're having fun with the A to Z Challenge!

Other advice I have been given is a) always ask if they have copies of your book in if they want you to sign them - signed copies will apparently sell more quickly, and b) take your own books out of the rack and place them with the front cover facing out rather than the spine. It can be a mean old world out there!

Thanks for sharing some of the bookseller perspective on writing and the publishing process, in this post and others. :) I'd love to hear your thoughts some time on how authors should reach out to booksellers to promote their books. What is helpful for bookstores? What is annoying? Etc. Rebecca Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12138361115317776477noreply@blogger.com
