FAQ
I'll add questions as they are asked:
​
Q: Will attendees be asked to pay a fee at the door?
A: No fee will be charged at the door. Attendees will receive a map of vendors and a swag bag of goodies (if vendors participate in the giveaway).
​
Q: Can I sell other stuff if it isn't book-related?
A: Yes, if the items you want to sell are related to what you write about, or are a part of your business.
​
Q: What kind of help are you looking for during setup?
A: We'd like to have help setting up the room with the tables and marking spaces, as well as lugging boxes for other vendors if needed.
​​​
Q: Does the show take a percentage of my sales?
A: No. Sales are all handled by the author for all table types.
​
Q: How many books should I bring?
A: That's up to the author, but most authors have said they are bringing from as few as 20 up to 50 books or more.
​
Q: What items do I need at my booth?
A: You'll want a nice display with cards or bookmarks and signage, but you may also want a sign for pricing, a cash box and change, a charge card swiper if you take cards, your Venmo QR code, etc.
​
Q: If I'm coming from out of town, is there a hotel close by? And are you blocking rooms for a discount?
A: We're not blocking rooms at this time. There are many hotels around the 132nd and L area. Here is a brief list:
