Now’s your chance:

What do YOU want to see in your local bookstore?

WHY do you come to the bookstore?

WHAT do you want to get when you’re there?

How many TIMES a month do you go to your local bookstore?

We have new and used – and can order almost anything, for a good price. Why in the world would you tell me, “Oh, that’s okay, I’ll just order it online!” I mean, I get that you might be in a hurry, or can find a slightly – and I do mean “slightly” – lower price. But to actually TELL me that, after I’ve gotten some info on a book you can’t quite remember, and check the store computer or even crawled around on the floor looking for the thing?

Okay, rant over – this is about YOU. Tell me what you want – more events? More authors? More new books? A different look?

Come on now, be honest! And, FYI, this could be ANY bookstore, not just All on the Same Page!

That’s a pretty lame title, and I hope you won’t hold it against me because –

Well, we have a LOT of stuff happening this month!

To start off, ALL week long we have 10% off local authors’ books – and that includes local publishers – AND you can register to win a Kobo E-reader. Just stop in today, tomorrow, or Saturday!

Speaking of Saturday, THAT is our big anniversary celebration! Yep, two years ago, October 1, 2011, Al Hrabosky and Tom Mee were there for our ribbon cutting. The eight weeks leading up to that, after we decided to open a bookstore, were pretty hectic but totally worth it!

So, anyway, on Saturday, noon to 4:00, we’re having refreshments, giveaways, and a drawing for that FREE Kobo – AND, we’re hosting the Deadly Duo with their two new books! Bill and Sharon Hopkins will be in town presenting River Mourn and Killertrust – you do NOT want to miss this!

We’re also having Liz Schulte in the store on October 12, and Jo Hiestand and Estelle Luttrell on October 19. Great authors, fantastic books!

Coming October 26, we’re having a Halloween party! But not just ANY Halloween party – Rocking Horse Publishing is launching a new book: Dickinstein. Food, fun, and absolute CROWDS are expected – live music, too, thanks to Davey Vaughn of This is Our Dance, an awesome local band!

Now that I’ve used up my allotment of exclamation marks for the foreseeable future, come take a look at our Facebook page and website and see everything we have to offer at All on the Same Page!
