5. Evening events are from 7:00-9:o0 pm and workshops do not typically begin before 11:00 am and must finish by 7:00 PM. If you are promoting a book or other materials you will go back into the Bookroom immediately after your event to sign books. Direct customers to our front desk for purchase of your merchandise before signing.

6. All presenters must agree to the following points:

• We only work with presenters who are willing to have a 4 minimum for their event. Most times get more than this, but there are no guarantees.
• We collect all moneys from those who attend and split what we take in 60/40 split with the presenter.

8. Our cancellation policy: if you are chosen to be a presenter and must cancel for any reason after the newsletter goes to print you will be charged a $200 cancellation fee to cover our cost for the newsletter space, advertising costs and website promotion.
