Book stores, clubs, and libraries. Dog-eared pages with notes in the margins, tell us about one for the record books, or just the CliffsNotes. If you go home with someone and they don’t have any…

Malaprop’s is pleased to be part of this special informational session for writers.
How do stores select which books they’ll carry? How do events work? What about consignment sales? Join Gold Leaf Literary and friends from Malaprop’s, Bookmarks, and M. Judson for a discussion about what makes booksellers happy and cringey when it comes to taking on local author’s books and doing events. We’ll share tips and best practices for setting up bookstore events and helping your books find their way on (and off!) the shelves, plus what to do (and not do) at your event.
The cost for this session is $10 and we’ll be donating half of all proceeds to UNICEF to help children in Ukraine, Syria, and elsewhere whose lives are endangered and disrupted by war.

Story Parlor presents Creativity Lab: a six-week exploration of the creative process, common blocks and obstacles, and ways to kickstart and sustain creative momentum.
Focused on the process and the act of doing, opposed to product or outcome, Creativity Lab explores ways to overcome fear, embrace curiosity, and channel our muse in all creative endeavors.
The six-week workshop is experiential, hands-on, and tactile. The Lab will utilize exercises to help cultivate imagination, innovation, and creativity. Each class will focus on a different part of the creativity process all while building a tool kit for dealing with obstacles in our way, creating positive habits for growth, and investigating the ways our personal narratives intersect with our work.
Registration Includes:
A guidebook with supplementary readings, exercises, and activities
A custom Story Parlor notebook
Access to Creativity Mixers
