It’s Back to School time! I know…some of you don’t want to hear that yet. But others are as excited as they can be!
To either ease into this transition or help you celebrate, ABSW has some special sales going on right now with coupons from our Special Offer Page. For example:
Take 20% off of any new or back issue magazines. (Up to three titles.)
Take 25% of any teacher special orders over $200. (Unlimited.)
Take an additional 10% off any one title you purchase.
Of course, August isn’t over yet. We still have the Worcester Storytellers on Friday, August 23, 7-8:30 PM, featuring local contemporary romance author Stephanie Monahan after their monthly open mic event. Want to join in? All types of writing are welcome!
September is right around the corner, though, and we’ve got more events coming up.
Saturday, September 14, 2-5PM: Chills and Thrills with Local Author Erin Thorne
Sturbridge-native Erin Thorne will be reading from her newest collection of chilling short stories, Behind The Wheel, as well as signing her other books and speaking to visitors.
Saturday, September 21, 2-5 PM: Other Worlds – an Afternoon of Fantasy Authors
Several fantasy authors, including Jennifer Allis Provost, author of Copper Girl and The Chronicles of Parthalan series, will visit to talk about their worldbuilding and other fantastic topics.
Friday, September 27, 7-8:30: Worcester Storytellers Anniversary Event
Worcester Storytellers celebrates their one year anniversary since they restarted with Annie’s Book Stop of Worcester, so they’re having three different features in addition to their open mic this night!
Also, don’t forget to also visit us on Wednesdays at 7PM, ABSW hosts Spinning Yarns, a chance for you to work on your favorite craft – be it knitting, crocheting, scrapbooking, writing, or whatever – while listening to an audiobook or audio play. Check out our Sunday blogs to what we’re listening to. Join us for a relaxing evening listening to good literature!
And keep your eye on our webpage and Facebook page for some new announcements about special community events for other local businesses—starting in September!
As always, thank you for your continued support of our local, independent bookstore at 65 James Street, Worcester, MA, and may your world always be full of wonderful words!
