I've worked in bookstores on and off for five years now. I started off at Barnes & Noble in 2009 before accepting a job at my favorite independent children's bookstore the fall of 2011 where I'm back working part-time. I've also been hanging with a lot of local New York authors who aren't sure about protocol with setting up launch parties, pitching panels, signing stock, etc.. so here's a post with how we've handled things in the stores I've worked at with the understanding that all stores - especially indies - operate differently. Okay, let's battle.
