Publicists Speed Dating, Day 1

The exciting Publicists Speed Dating will be held twice in 2017! ABA member bookstore owners, managers, and event coordinators meet one-on-one with publicists from several publishers from among the participating companies. During the timed “dates,”  booksellers have the chance to promote their stores and discover what publicists look for when planning author tours. Pre-registration is required; deadline is Friday, May 12. Booksellers may sign up for the Day 1 session (Wednesday, May 31) and/or the Day 2 session (Friday, June 2).

Registration is now closed.
