It's time for another Rebel Ever After's premium episode! This month my guest is Katherine Morgan, the owner of Grand Gesture Books, Portland's first romance bookstore. She shared what she has learned during the store’s first year at 814 SW 10th Ave — from managing stock to building community at events.

She shared her advice on how authors can build strong relationships with their local booksellers, and how you can still support indie bookstores if you’re on a book buying freeze. Plus we talked about all those beautiful hardcover special editions… and wondered what makes a special edition “special” anyway?
