Featuring and promoting authors as part of our store, is just one way we can help authors succeed in reaching many readers as possible. We focus on independent authors, hybrid published authors, and traditionally published authors who believe in the power of independent bookstores.
The Crafty Bookstore's ultimate goal is to treat authors' and their work with the care, respect, and appreciation it deserves. We strive to provide a welcoming, community atmosphere for authors who join our store, with the assurance they will be treated like family and cared for through every step of working with us. We believe in providing options and outlets that best suite the author's needs and desires in addition to our store's mission and goals.

Author Interest Form
Our Author Interest Form is for authors who wish to join our store community, where we not only sell your books but also provide you with support, encouragement, and resources in the promotion and sales of your books.
TCB's Featured Authors are currently our consigned authors. We know consignment brings financial risk and so we do everything we can to bring benefit to you. This includes resources and access to special opportunities including features in our Book Box, option for sprayed edges, branding, and more!
Pre-Order Campaign Request
Indie authors interested in offering physical pre-orders of their book, outside of the big box stores, are welcome to complete our Pre-Order Campaign Request. This form is intended to provide all the details we need to launch your physical pre-orders as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
Pre-orders can be launched at the time you request, until release day. You're welcome to offer books unsigned or signed, including bookplates, and incentives (free goodies). Our Pre-Order Campaigns are designed to serve and help you!

Since we opened, we've worked with primarily Indie Authors, and that means we've been part of the journey for many Indies who have transition to Traditional publishing or who are Hybrid published authors (part Traditionally published and part Indie). These authors are ones we've had the joy of being with for years, and have the joy of saying we were supporters when they were all Indie!
