AWP Sale
To celebrate the last day of this year’s AWP bookfair, everything in the Malarkey store is 25% off. The code is AWP25.
I’m not there in LA, but Itoro Bassey, Spencer Fleury, LJ Pemberton, Sheldon Birnie (shouted out in this Vol. 1 Brooklyn piece), and Alex Miller are there, running the table for us. I hear the reading went well the other night. It was at a bar. The staff were confused about what a reading entailed. So basically just like last year. Wish I could have been there.
It has been a little slow so far. We have almost made back the cost of the table. Whether we can recoup the cost of the books is another story, but maybe Saturday will be a big deal. There should be more people. There should be more people intending to buy books. A lot of people last year only bought on Saturday. Of course there were those last year who didn’t buy on Saturday because they blew threw their budgets by Friday.
I don’t have any good stories, since I’m not there. We’ll have to get the writers to tell them. In the meantime, buy some books. The bookfair ends today; the AWP25 online sale ends tomorrow.
