**NOTE: If you are an independent author, you have until October 7 to register and have your book be featured at the event!**
Last night, Friday, September 24 at 6:00 pm was the launching “The Small Business Survival Guide” by Alrick Robinson http://tinyurl.com/2adatr3
This book goes way beyond the basic nuts and bolts of how-to,and gives would-be entrepreneurs the key insights, practical tools, and wisdom they will need to conceptualize, build, and launch a new startup and successfully survive the first two years. There will be a free workshop followed by the booksigning – so bring your questions!
On Sunday the 26th, the BOOK CLUB meets to discuss “The Elegance of the Hedgehog” by Muriel Barbery. A runaway success around the world that has been translated into 31 languages and has sold more than a million copies…also a book that has been described as too smart for its own good! We meet at 2:30 on Sunday to discuss (and theres so much to discuss!!) As usual, Bin26 gifts each Book Club attendee with a free glass of wine at their chic wine-bar at Devon House.. so dont forget to pick up your coupon on Sunday.
The KIDS CLUB will be meeting on Saturday morning at 11:00 am for Childrens Storytime, so calling out all the moms and pops, aunties and uncles to bring the little ones for an hour of storytime.
Last but not least, after a week on Twitter, we have to very grudgingly admit that we like it! Go to www.twitter.com/bookophilia or if you are on twitter look for us @bookophilia.
And Congrats to Marlon James – author of The Book of Night Women for winning the Dayton Literary Peace prize! We are SO proud -young Jamaican author getting big recognition. Maybe we’ll get him back into Bookophilia on his next trip to do another book reading? Hmmm!
