Special Mailings

Monthly Mailings to Our Bookstores That Care Network:
Over the years we have developed a network of 500 bookstores that support romantic fiction. We affectionately call them our BOOKSTORES THAT CARE. A BTC is a store that cares about the books they sell. It's owned, operated or managed by people who have a rapport with their romance customers and who go out of their way to service them.

A BTC supports authors'-and publishers'-efforts to promote romance. They will be happy to post your flyers and distribute your bookmarks and other promotional materials. They love knowing about your books in advance and share the information with their customers.

Bookmarks: $15 per 1,000 Bookmarks (with a $110 minimum). Bookmarks must be bundled with sturdy rubber bands into 500 packets (one for each Bookstore). Divide the number printed by 500 for quantity per packet. A maximum of 20 bookmarks per packet are allowed.
