An Exclusive SIBA Bookseller Invite!

We’re excited to host the exclusive virtual launch on 5/24 for James Lee Burke’s new novel,  Every Cloak Rolled in Blood. James Lee Burke is a New York Times bestselling author, two-time winner of the Edgar Award, and the recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts in Fiction. He’ll be in conversation with Reader Meet Writer host and SIBA’s 2022 Southern Book Prize winner for fiction, Wiley Cash. We’d love your store to join us as a co-host!

We want this to be a success for you, and to help you sell books! When folks register to attend, they are asked to specify their indie bookstore of choice. After our event, stores can request lists of attendees linked to their store, in order to follow up with purchases. The publicist for Mr. Burke also has signed bookplates if you’d like to offer that to your customers. One store is live-streaming the event to her customers, in-store, on a big screen. Want to do that, too? Let us know so we can let you in early to make sure you’re good to go at showtime.

More info to market this event can be found at the Bookseller tab for Reader Meet Writer, (which requires you log in). I’d love to hear if you’re part of the circle of stores co-hosting, and to answer any questions! Contact lindamarie@sibaweb.com for more information.
