celebrating the return of our
Local and Independent Author Program
Due to the evolving nature of our events schedule over the past few years, our Local and Independent Author Program had been paused. Since we have returned to consistent in-person programming, we are thrilled to reestablish this popular program! We thank you for your patience and we look forward to working with you.
Local and Independent Author Event Guidelines and Regulations:
  • The author will provide a completed Local and Independent Author application for the appropriate event/genre during the submission period.
  • We will consider all event requests but cannot accommodate all applicants.
  • Each genre-focused event will include up to but no more than six authors.
  • RJ Julia Booksellers will support each event with extensive promotion.
  • RJ Julia will staff each event, including selling books.
The schedule for the 2023-2024 Local and Independent Author Program is as follows:
  • Mystery: submissions accepted NOW through Friday, June 16, 2023. The event will be held on Wednesday, July 19, 2023.
  • Historical Fiction: submissions accepted in July 2023; event in September.
