Called my local bookstore to make sure they knew. They had vaguely heard of it, but I am into this &amp; will spread the word.MartaSzabohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07554422492794060801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-32306509680609386892009-04-22T10:28:00.000-04:002009-04-22T10:28:00.000-04:00Jan, I will post about Free Comic Book Day.

I guess it helps to be dating an guy who owns a comic book store. Wicked tight with a guy who owns the local science fiction store. <br /><br />May 1st was a good pick for the day. The very next day May 2nd is Free Comic Book day. I am a fan of any day that encourages reading.<br /><br />I'll be blogging about both days, could you mention free comic book day? <A HREF="http://www.freecomicbookday.com/" REL="nofollow"> Free comic book day </A>Since you have 94 more followers than I do...Fibro Witchhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14608225697605710313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-11101593769963772972009-04-15T14:37:00.000-04:002009-04-15T14:37:00.000-04:00Brandy- thank you for pointing this out! :-)Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14938166831865436287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-78542090119233574302009-04-14T17:37:00.000-04:002009-04-14T17:37:00.000-04:00Porter Square Books returns the love you gave it in a post they made today! http://portersquarebooksblog.blogspot.com/2009/04/buy-indie-day.html<br /><br />They really are a great store, and I'm not just saying that because my husband used to work there.Brandyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17942054277477328292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-60168139401272253662009-04-12T04:10:00.000-04:002009-04-12T04:10:00.000-04:00An award is awaiting you at A Novel Menagerie in the Sunday Salon Post.ANovelMenageriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12328178716595263790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-39946113742131690362009-04-11T21:49:00.000-04:002009-04-11T21:49:00.000-04:00I ordered from an Indie store.<BR/><BR/>This award that I'm giving you will show up Sunday after midnight.<BR/><BR/>http://jewwishes.wordpress.com/2009/04/12/jew-wishes-on-sunday-scene-april-12-2009/<BR/><BR/>~~LorriJew Wisheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04106212612782086958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-88454366599296796922009-04-11T19:58:00.000-04:002009-04-11T19:58:00.000-04:00I work at an independent bookshop, so I am all about this.charleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06131924592639030353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-30514867002956690972009-04-11T19:10:00.000-04:002009-04-11T19:10:00.000-04:00I am a huge proponent of Indie bookstores.

The raffle will be for an AExpress Gift Card so that the winner will be able to shop at an independent bookstore. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for blogging about this. <BR/>Wisteria<BR/>www.bookwormsdinner.blogspot.comwisteriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02620398484256424032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-52104520141795252342009-04-11T15:12:00.000-04:002009-04-11T15:12:00.000-04:00Candy, that's why I left the Indiebound.org link. :-) Use my zip code, 02138, to find a Boston-area indie that will ship to you if there's not one around you!Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14938166831865436287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-56775843960055393992009-04-11T13:59:00.000-04:002009-04-11T13:59:00.000-04:00Unfortunately there are no independents left in my area. I used to work in the one and only until it went out of business when both Borders and B&amp;N opened stores here. I have to drive quite a ways to find an independent store any more. There is a decent used bookstore nearby thankfully.candyschultzhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09535661393791135479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359999156621466745.post-22647909386608836342009-04-11T13:14:00.000-04:002009-04-11T13:14:00.000-04:00Well, I seem to be glued to Twitter.
