@linuxgnome @lydiaconwell For #books, CD/DVD & some stationery in the UK, Hive also supports #independentbookshops, and it's a vital source of income for my favourite #IndieBookshop: https://www.hive.co.uk/

I just went to Wellfield #Bookshop to pick up a couple of #books for my #TBR pile. It’s the closest #IndieBookshop to me and I can always buy something good from there.

I’ve seen Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch around for a while now, but it’s taken me this long to get it. I’ve also heard of The Tatami Galaxy by Tomohiko Morimi. Apparently it got turned into an #anime, but I know nothing more than that.

I went to Griffin Books in #Penarth and bought some #books for the #TBR pile. Might take a while to get round to #reading them, but I'm glad I went to an #IndieBookshop in #Cardiff.

@CandaceRobbAuthor @clive Agree! For delivery of books & music in the UK there's also www.hive.co.uk
My current favourite #IndieBookshop loves Hive.The #bookshop is tiny, with very high danger-to-size ratio, & has made as much money through nominations on Hive as on direct sales. Hive is run by Gardners the big UK book distributor. If you can pick up in the shop, it earns 25%.

More ways to get my #books. My short story collection, 'Fluctuation in Disorder', is now available on Kindle, as well as in Kobo, B&N, and other online shops. You can also order the hardcopy through your local friendly #IndieBookshop

If you want to support independent bookshops on the day where we suckle on the teat of Mammon, you could always check out what one is closest to you and give your business to them using the directory at http://www.indiebookshops.com

I’m afraid I’m about the shameless self-promotion again today, but it’s bc I seriously love this line of notebooks. & now I have a spin-rack of them: DECOMPOSITION BOOKS. Want cats in spacesuits? Got ‘em. Want flying sharks? Got ‘em. Want to support an indie bookstore? Here we are: Bradford, Vermont. 10% off on Small Biz Saturday. We ship inside the US by media mail for $5 up to 5lbs. #IndieBookshop #indie #bookstore #DecompositionBooks #StarCatBooks #SmallBusinessSaturday

Please remember your local indie bookstore this Small Business Saturday. We earn 1/3 (or more!) of our income between Thanksgiving & Christmas: 3 short weeks. If you can’t visit in person, we’re on Bookshop: just about every book in print, discounts, shipped directly to you, but we profit from it, not a rich man who wants to live in space. www.bookshop.org/shop/Starcatbooks #indie #SmallBizSaturday #bookstore #IndieBookshop

Another day of bookselling done... Lovely chat with our accountant & a fab bookclub discussion... Now waiting for a train home for my dinner... #BobsDay #BookshopLife #bookselling #indiebookshop
