Conference Attendees Can Pre-Order My Books

Are you attending any of these events? If so, are you interested in pre-ordering one or more of my titles?


April 14-17, 2015: Texas Library Association, Austin


May 22-25, 2015: Comicpalooza, Houston


June 18-21, 2015: UtopYA Con, Nashville


July 23-25, 2015: Penned Con, St. Louis


Readers may be wondering if there is an advantage to pre-ordering books over waiting to buy at the event. The answer is YES. The most obvious advantage is that you don’t have to worry about an author selling out. Your copy or copies will be guaranteed. The other advantage is that authors usually offer an incentive for pre-orders. This year, my incentive is that all pre-paid orders get a discount of 20% off the regular price.


Fellow authors may be wondering if they should make pre-orders available, too. YES, YOU SHOULD, for many reasons. First, simply by posting the pre-order around social media, you are marketing your brand. Second, pre-orders will help you to better plan for the number of books you should bring to the event. Third, you can offer the option to have readers pre-pay, which will help you with your upfront costs. Finally, you can include an incentive for readers to subscribe to your newsletter on your form.
