The LA Times Festival of Books is a pretty big affair, and table prices are beyond what we at Narrow Books like to think of as our “budget”, but writer Joseph Mattson, who has been a contributor, editor, and now the star of our first solo fiction release is going to be signing at the Book Soup booth. 
I’m sure he’ll be signing our book of his short stories, Eat Hell, but he also might sign some copies of our last anthology, TL Vol. 2, which he contributed to and helped to edit.
Not sure what time he’s signing, but will update here as soon as I know.
Then on May 2nd and 3rd, Unique LA is having its second event, and we’ll be there again. The organizers of this giant independent design market really seem to have their sh*t together. The event happens in an impressive upper story space at the California Market Center downtown, taking up a whole floor—trust me, you’ll want to spend several hours there, at least. And they’ve had the foresight to have press-only openings on the first day so that the many vendors of clothing, handicrafts, and, in our case, books, can have a more relaxed dialogue with bloggers and journalists as they wander through.
It looks like we’re going to be placed next to 826LA, which sounds nice, and sounds as if the organizers may’ve set up an informal “literary section”? (There are currently three formal sections for art galleries, purveyors of kids’ and babies stuff, and green eco-products.)
NOTE: Special to the Unique LA event, we’re going to be presenting some great books from other publishers, including Megan Whitmarsh’s Yeti Logic, which was published by Rojo in Spain. And I think we’re going to have some signings go down, will update here when I know the details!
