The Palouse Writers Guild is hosting its 5th Annual Books & Brews event on Saturday, June 22, 2024. At this free, family-friendly event, authors can meet with the public and autograph their books. The event will be held at the 1912 Center, in Moscow, Idaho and will run from 4 pm to 6 pm that evening. Our official vendor is BookPeople of Moscow and they will handle all sales.
BookPeople staff will be on hand to meet with authors and scan their books into the inventory prior to the event. Rather than the usual 60/40 split, BookPeople is offering an 80/20 split on consignment sales if authors provide their own books.
- If you want to take advantage of the higher split & will provide your own books, indicate that on the application.
- If you want to participate, but prefer to have BookPeople handle procurement, indicate that somewhere on the application, too. (Books must be widely available through BookPeople’s normal distributors.)
To be considered as a Book & Brews author, see the following application: Brews Application
Applications must be postmarked by April 1, 2024. Authors selected for inclusion will be notified no later than May 1, 2024 and will be expected to provide a headshot for marketing and promotional purposes.
*The Brews Application is recycled from previous years. Ignore the dates on the application, it’s still relevant for 2024.
Will we again be accorded an opportunity to read aloud from our writings?
Hi Stu:
I’m working on that! This year we’re thinking of having readings upstairs in the auditorium and away from the hubbub of sales so it will be easier to hear the readers.
I’m confused. I was at the Festival 2 years ago and there were workshops, etc. Is that happening this years or is only Books & Brews? Thanks
We’re only doing Books & Brews this year.
