Turn the Dallas Asheville into a giant game board with this fun scavenger hunt adventure. Combine the excitement of the Amazing Race with a two and a half-hour city tour.

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.
