This is a reblog from Cate Russell Cole’s wonderful site: CommuniCate Resources for Writers. Books have been on my mind lately, and this is just the push I need to buy some more. Next on my list is something by John Updike. I’ve decided to catch up on his and Philip Roth’s work in the next few months. There’s a little used bookstore up on Main Street in Santa Monica, called Angel City Book Store and Gallery. I plan to be browsing there one day this week.
Now here’s Cate:
Support an Author: Grab that Book You’ve Been Wanting ~ #saam14
There is a pie shop near here that has the slogan, Buy one so we both don’t go hungry. It is one of the best advertising slogans I’ve seen. Books feed both the reader’s and the writer’s soul in so many ways. So, you know you’ve been meaning to¦ this week, your love task for Support an Author Month is to go buy that book you’ve planned to get, but didn’t get around to.
Don’t forget, wherever you buy your books from, leave some love!
I love this reminder, Madelind and Cate. Thanks for sharing the importance of supporting one another and our local bookstores.
Thanks so much, Kathy. After seeing Cate’s post I had to share it. Where would we be without our author friends, books and local bookstores?
