Select One Yes No Are there specific times or days that you would NOT be able to appear either on a panel or for a book signing? If so, what are those days or times?
*All signing times for onsite and offsite events are at the discretion of Barnes & Noble. I understand that if this information is received after July 1, 2007, Barnes & Noble will progressively have a harder time ordering copies of my books to sign. Only books carried by traditional distributors will be available to be signed offsite at the B&N Bookstore Cool Springs. Authors may not bring their own books to the offsite signing. Any questions regarding availability of books should be addressed to Robbie Bryan at B&N 615-377-9979.
** I understand this is a “mixer” as opposed to a “traditional signing.” Attendees will be given the opportunity to purchase my books, find me at the party, and ask me to sign. Because this bookstore specializes in used books and collectables, only a few copies of my in-print books may be ordered by the store. I understand I am encouraged to bring copies of my own books (in-print and out-of-print) to sell and sign at this event. Any questions regarding bookstore discount terms off retail price should be addressed to Landmark Booksellers 615-791-6400.
