👀 What
We may all be knackered but that was our best day of the year 🥳 So we just need to do two events and the shop every Saturday, right...? 🫠😅
#Fantasycon - pleased that @portalbookshop.bsky.social is now stocking The Crooked Medium's Guide to Terror and will be my Northern Powerhouse. #queer #sff
My Top Tips for Loving a Lizard went down a storm at a 9.00am post karaoke hungover reading so visit @wtpress.bsky.social too.
And the shop is open and still has stock left in it, we didn't completely tip it all out to run off to other places ;) Plus, the cafe has cake and a wild variety of syrups for some incredibly colourful flavoured drinks! 🥳
And the lovely Jamie and Andy are running things down in York for Rainbow Bookfest!
Treats and prizes available there too!
Find them at the Radisson hotel until 4 (enquire on arrival for tickets as the online advance sales are ended!)
Triple Portal Day is a go! 🥳 It's also National Bookshop Day!
Glasgow, Fantasycon @britfantasysoc.bsky.social
We look cute, come buy books (authors, come sign your books!)
Every purchase today gets entered into a a draw to win a £5 National Book Token!
Possibly: migrainetrust.org/understand-m...
Trans Authors, For Trans Awareness Month (exact dates Nov 1st-15th), I'm putting together a Trans SciFi & Fantasy Bundle. (Note: its best to submit a book you won't be using for my Trantasy & Queer Fantasy bundle, running Dec 20th -Jan something 😉) Sign up form: is on my discord or I can DM it!
I think/hope so. But yeah, unpleasant 💔
Safe and unharmed, if upset, bless them 🥺
So uh... we was robbed! No really 😅 Couple scammers last night made off with a little cash, not even into triple figures, not a huge deal, we'll live. But my poor wonderful staff did not deserve that experience. So if you come by the shop this week, please be extra lovely to my people?
Caught it before it left the shop! Will hold off dropping it off until Tuesday :)
Happy October Day(e) everyone! 🥳
Yes! Bookshop.org do ebooks and audiobooks now and are expanding their range all the time :)
Portal is such a cool place and indeed community, if you're in or near York then check it out.
The Portal Bookshop is one of my favourite places that I have not even visited (bc sadly portals do not exist) BUT if you happen to be near York you should definitely pay a visit to help them celebrate being 7, or just because 🎈
👀
And of course, our actual permanent shop 😁 Come visit us at 5 Patrick Pool, YO1 8BB, every day of the week!
Or if you're in York that day, get two Portals for the price of one:
We'll be at the Rainbow Bookfest 10-4, at the Radisson Hotel
