Literary Entrepreneur Daisy White provides a marketing platform for independent publishers and self-published authors to showcase their work on the High Street. The Bookshop 'pops up' in empty shops/community spaces and includes a rapidly expanding Booktique section, and a Gallery for emerging artists and illustrators.
Authors and artists can interact with their readers/customers, book signings and launches, and generally enjoy a host of creative chat and advice. The internet provides a vast opportunity for 'indie' authors, but the Bookshop takes their creativity down to a human level, and provides the kind of exposure needed to 'stand out from the crowd'. Readers today are knowledgable and discerning, and this venture enables them to chat to authors before they buy, discovering the personality behind the book.
Daisy White's Pop-Up Indie Bookshop is currently appearing in the PopUp Britain retail showcase in Ashford, Kent, before moving to Tunsgate Square Shopping Centre, Guildford, Surrey for six weeks.
