I love to travel around to conventions. It’s not only lots of fun to go new places, but I love meeting readers and listeners…and I love signing things.
Being a librarian still in my heart, it makes me smile to think of my autographed books on people’s shelves.
However, it is a sad fact that not everyone can make it to a convention, and I can’t be everywhere—so people often ask for a way to get books signed. I have used Paypal before to arrange selling signed copies, however, it has always been a bit of a finagle, of what I have in stock, or some people don’t like using paypal…
Well Tee and I have taken to using the Square when we go on conventions, so we can be our own little bookstore and don’t have to rely on the convention to have a book seller. It’s been neat and handy, but then I found out the Square folks are now running an online marketplace where you can sell stuff directly.
So I’ve set up a little store, where I can keep track of the stock I have, and those that are yearning for signed copies can get hold of them easily. I will even personalise them for you. They really make excellent gifts 🙂
Naturally, availability is based on what I have on my shelf, but I do always try and keep 5-10 copies of my own work in the house.
The only downside is Square does not do international sales, however email me if you are outside the US borders and I will still do the same deal, it’s just that shipping will be a little more.
The link is under Store above, but for now you can click on this handy dandy Square button and go there directly.
