May 2 will be BIG for AuthorU members and AuthorU … all day long, it’s AuthorU Day at the Colorado Blvd. Barnes & Noble bookstore. Author signings throughout the day. We will have two tables for signings—two authors at each table and signing times will be 90 minute  slots. Only 20 authors will have the opportunity to be featured. This means that it’s an Early Bird grabber.

There are 5 strings attached with this free event to be selected to participate: 

1.  You must (or your publisher) be a paid-up member of AuthorU.
2.  You must (or your publisher) be there in person—you are strongly encouraged to not be a swooper (only there for 90 minutes) … wander the store and give coupons to anyone you see, encouraging them to give it to the cashier at checkout. It doesn’t cost them anything and B&N will make a donation to support and recognize authors.
3.  Your book(s) MUST be available through a distributor—B&N only works this way. 
4.  You will actively promote the event to one and all via your contacts and social media platforms—bodies and sales will count.
5.  You will give out the coupons that B&N supplies to us to any and all you can get them to within the store—it doesn’t matter if customers buy your book, another AuthorU member’s, or any title within the store … we get credit for it.

If you are interested in being featured (we will be doing a press release on this), contact Judith Briles (Judith@Briles.com) with your name, title, © year, ISBN, price, category and one line describing the book. Please put in the subject line: May book event.

December 19th will be big for AuthorU members and AuthorU … it’s AuthorU and Colorado Authors Hall of Fame Day at the Colorado Blvd. Barnes & Noble.

 Author signings all day … all customers who use the special coupon created by B&N and distributed to ANYONE who comes into the store on December 19th, selects books AND then gives to the cashier at check-out will create a donation back to the Authors Hall of Fame gratis B&N … how very cool is that! Watch for more info and sign-ups to participate. Support your author friends who are signing and SHOP in the store. We will get credit for any books as long as a coupon is given to the cashier.
