Donna, Emma, and Laura Lamont’s Life in Pictures<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

We took the wonderful opportunity, in the last weekend of September, to introduce ourselves to colleagues at the New Atlantic Independent Booksellers Association annual meeting trade show, where fellow booksellers, publishing professionals, and AUTHORS joined us in basically geeking out on BOOKS! A big, big highlight was connecting with Emma Straub<\/a>, a wonderful debut author who also works at an independent bookstore in Brooklyn. We learned that other booksellers are as delighted as we are to promote and support writers, and that ebooks and print books can and do happily coexist. We also got a tour of Politics and Prose<\/a>, an exemplary Washington, DC independent bookseller, and were awed and inspired by what one little business with a great love of books can bring to a community. So, come on! Bring it, Cuppa Pulp!<\/p>\n

Well, okay\u2014let\u2019s start with our Fall Events<\/a>! The Night Circus book club<\/a> meeting has been moved forward to Monday, October 8, at 8:00 pm. Please consider joining us if you have read The Night Circus, or if you\u2019d like to swoon over it all weekend in preparation. It is a wonderful, sensuous book about magic and power.<\/p>\n

Monument 14<\/a> author Emmy Laybourne<\/a> will offer a workshop entitled Exploding Writer\u2019s Block!, offering improv techniques that you can employ to bust through creative sluggishness. Thursday, November 8, at 8:00 pm at Green Meadow Waldorf School, in the music room of the Arts Building, 307 Hungry Hollow Road, Chestnut Ridge, New York. Please sign up for this FREE workshop either on the clipboard at Meadowlark, or by emailing us at info@cuppapulp.com<\/a>. You can also call us at (845) 290-1572.<\/p>\n

Finally, we\u2019re pleased to feature Award Winners at 10% off through October, in addition to our Fall Features. Pick up a selection or two by Colum McCann<\/a>, Junot Diaz<\/a>, Jennifer Egan<\/a>, or Elizabeth Strout<\/a>, and experience greatness!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
