Guidelines for Local Authors

We are a small shop with limited shelf space and we can only hold so much on our shelves. There is no hidden storage; what you see is what we've made space for right now.

Before approaching us with your book, please consider the following: 

-Do you know our shop? Does your book fit with our current selection? 
-Is the design, editing and production professional? 
- Is it stocked by a wholesaler? We use Gardners, and usually request they be available through them.

Please note, we do not accept any books made with the aid of AI, both written and illustrated.

If you believe your book belongs in our shop, do drop us an email with as many details as possible.

The Society of Authors have put together a really helpful guide to getting your book into bookshops- have a read of it here.
