New Mexico Book CoOp
March Meeting
Our next meeting will be Friday, March 19 at 12 noon at the Golden Corral in Albuquerque (3401 NM HWY 528; just west of Coors Blvd. and Alameda). Our guest will be Rex Barron, designer of book covers and illustrator. Book covers are one of the first ways books are sold and have to be eye catching and visually express what is in the book. NM Book Co-op member Ruthe Francis will also participate. Her experience as a bookseller of many years demonstrated what book sold because of a good cover and what books did not sell because of a bad cover design.
Rex Barron has illustrated seven children’s books, authored two children’s books, illustrated for the Albuquerque Alibi, Albuquerque Monthly Magazine, and is currently a cartoonist for New Mexico Breeze electronic newspaper. He illustrated The Big Bug Ball and Eggbert among many others. He worked for Putnam & Sons; Harcourt, Brace, & Jovanovich; McGraw Hill; Mac Millan; Hanna - Barbera; and illustrated the Claritin Calendar for Schering - Plough.

Book signings for Don Bullis' New Book
February 1, 2009 - 2-4pm - Bookworks, 4022 Rio Grande Blvd. NW, Albuquerque, book signing
For better or worse, politics have always played an important part in New Mexico life, beginning with the first Spanish explorers and conquerors in the 16th century. New Mexico Spanish Colonial Governors Juan Bautista de Anza and Fernando de la Concha, made and maintained peace with the Comanche, in the later years of the 18th century. Mexican Governor Albino Pérez, on the other hand, was murdered by his constituents in 1837. American Territorial Governor Lew Wallace left New Mexico in favor of Turkey in the face of his inability to deal with the violence of the Lincoln County War. Judge Joab Houghton had no legal training, and it showed. Judge Kirby Benedict consumed enough alcohol that President Abe Lincoln felt compelled to comment. Texas Judge Spruce Baird attempted to singlehandedly claim most of New Mexico for the Lone Star State. Judge David Leahy was shot, but not killed, by newspaper editor Carl Magee in a Las Vegas, New Mexico, hotel lobby. This book is a sampler of New Mexico political figures beginning in 1598. Most are uniquely New Mexican.
Published in collaboration with Albuquerque Westerners and with financial support from the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs Statehood Centennial Grant.

This is a good way to promote our local authors as the station has a 17 state range.

READING ALBUQUERQUE RADIO SHOW
The Reading Albuquerque radio show is looking for local children's authors who are interested in being a guest on the show on KKOB AM (770 AM). The show is hosted by Margaret Aragon de Chavez. The show is live every Sunday evening, 6-7pm, starting in late September through the school year. Each Sunday the show has students from local elementary schools read selections. The show also likes to highlight New Mexican authors, having them read their books, or a selection from their book (approximately 10 minutes) on the air. This is a good way to promote our local authors as the station has a 17 state range. If interested in being a guest on the Reading Albuquerque Show contact Paula Delap-Padilla, 767-5849 (505) or at pdelappadilla@cabq.gov
NEW FACES/NEW JOBS
Will Steinsiek has left his job as book manager at the Wyoming Hastings to become Executive Director for the Read West literacy program in Rio Rancho. A new book manager will be named soon for the Wyoming store. Will wants all of the authors to know that it has been a pleasure working with you and reminds anyone who has consignment books at the store that Hastings' official policy is that authors are required to check on their books every thirty days. If a book has not been checked on after 60 days, it's considered abandoned and may be discarded.

MOTHERS DAY BOOK FAIR FILLING UP FAST — DON’T WAIT TO LONG TO SIGN UP!
The New Mexico Book Co-op and the New Mexico Book Association have teamed together to sponsor the Mother’s Day Book Fair at The Village in Eldorado, on the east side of Santa Fe on Saturday, May 10 from 10am to 3pm. The Mother’s Day Book Fair will feature authors and publishers from all across New Mexico. The book fair will be held indoors in The Village at Eldorado (there are two buildings of shops) on Caliente Road and Avenida Vista Grande across from the supermarket just off U.S. 285. Participants can provide their own tables and chairs or they can be provided by the fair sponsors. In addition to the Book Fair, there will be a Growers Market and music and entertainment outdoors. The Vista Grande Public Library will be involved in the promotion for the event. The fee to participate in this book fair is $10 if you provide you own table (6-foot max.) and chairs; it is $20 if you want the sponsors to provide the table (6-foot) and two chairs. There are also a few tables that are smaller and they are available at $15 for a 40-inch round table (with 1 chair) or $10 for a 1-foot x 2-foot table (with 1 chair); these smaller tables are perfect to display one or two books. If you provide your own 6-foot table or get one from the fair sponsors you may share with one other author/publisher. Space will be assigned for tables in advance based on when you submit your reservation. All monies generated from the fees will be used to promote the book fair. Application forms are available at http://nmbookcoop.com/page18/page90/page90.html.
ONLY ABOUT A DOZENS SLOTS LEFT FOR LAVENDER IN THE VILLAGE BOOK EVENT
Last year, Lavender in the Village brought thousands of people to the Village of Los Ranchos. It was a two day event and because it was such a great opportunity last year for book and authors, the New Mexico Book Co-op is opening the event up to authors from the village. This year’s Lavender festival is set for July 11- 13. LPD Press and the New Mexico Book Co-op, both located in Los Ranchos, are organizing a couple of booths that will cater to local authors who want to sell their books. There are also spaces for signings. Join in the fun and be a part of the largest activity in the Village. We want books that appeal to kids, adults, cookbooks, histories, novels, and of course lavender books! But keep the books family friendly. If you have any questions call 344-9382. The opportunity is first-come, first-served. Authors who live in the Village of Los Ranchos will have a chance to sign up first. Local authors will be the first to sign up but they must sign up before April 1, 2008. To sign up http://nmbookcoop.com/page18/page89/page89.html
