I love cash, cash is my friend forever!
1st, you've probably heard this before, but pay in cash when you can. Every time you swipe or tap it costs the store, eh, 2-4% of the total of the transaction. That may not sound like much but for small businesses 2-5% can be the difference between being nervous & comfortable, even open or closed...

We know that, for a ton of reasons, a lot of folks don't have as much to spend as they'd like this holiday season. Sooooooo, here's a thread of things you can do that will support your local indie bookstore or other business WITHOUT spending any more than you intended...

Sargassa and Bloodtide are must-read books filled with political intrigue, villains you can’t resist, and vivid and fleshed-out worldbuilding. We guarantee that these sweeping books will have you craving for more history and politics!

Have another drink of Green Elixir and we'll have ourselves a little mixer on Bar Cart Bookshelf! Today we're talking about WICKED by Gregory Maguire. A prickly meditation on the nature of evil, this modern classic remains immensely rewarding & a true favorite reread. A long awaited cocktail treat!

Timely and transcendent. I've had a marvelous time recently with ECO24, collecting some of the finest ecofiction of the last year. A chance to reflect on the anxieties of a changing world, and to consider possibilities for transformation and alternative paths. A critical collection for our time!!

Literally buying one copy of a book at your local indie bookstore can mean the difference in whether they buy future books from that author.

Don’t pirate books! And if you do, stfu about it and stop pretending it’s some kind of moral or Marxist or revolutionary stance. Just be brave and own the fact that you don’t care that you are a thief who doesn’t care about artists.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
