Book Consignment

Are you a local/indie scifi, fantasy, or related genre** author?  

We’re looking for your books!

We are a small scifi/fantasy/fandom book shop located in Historic Downtown Glendale, AZ and we love to work with local authors!

We are actively looking for authors who want to work directly with us.

**In related genres and one we get requested a lot: horror, magical realism, fandom, literary analysis of carried genres, fandom drink & cookbooks, books on writing, witchy/occult/spirituality, and the most requested – poetry! And don’t forget romance that also fits these genres!

 

How our system works:

  • We work on a delayed consignment model – meaning you get paid when your books sell.

  • We do not have any shelf, stocking, administration or other fees.

  • We pay approximately 50% of your list price.

 

The details:

  • When determining your wholesale price AKA 50% of the list price, please make sure that it covers your expenses and profit.

  • We absorb the costs of any discounts, sales, promotions, etc. So you always get paid the same wholesale amount.

  • We set the final price for the book in the store.

  • We pay out once a month by the 10th for the previous month’s sales.

  • We offer the option to be paid by check, cash, Venmo, Cashapp, Zelle, and store credit.

  • We charge and pay sales tax. You are responsible for all personal taxes.  

 

If this sounds like a good fit for you, please reach out to us in one of the following ways:

Visit our writer’s group on Thursday nights!

Visit us on a Saturday afternoon after 4pm.

Email at TheScribbledHollow@gmail.com

(We can be slow to respond to email when overwhelmed, we apologize and encourage you to be patient and reach out again.)

 

If you visit us in person, I encourage you to bring 2-5 copies of each of your books with you! 3-5 of standalones and first in a series and 2-3 of subsequent books in a series.

 

 

  F.A.Q. 

1. What's the fastest way to get my book(s) into the store?

By coming and seeing us in store at one of the above listed times. Yes, we really mean that.  

​

2. I haven't heard back from my email or text - does that mean I wasn't accepted? 

No, unfortunately we are overwhelmed with messages right now and we have not gotten to it yet. 

 

3. Do you accept books created with generative AI?  

No. We do not accept books that were written or have artwork with generative AI. 

​

4. If I want to cut someone, such as the other writers in the Thursday  group, a deal on my books that are in your store - can I do that? 

No. Once we have taken the books into our possession we set the final price. Before we take them into our possession, or books we do not carry that are sold on-premises, would fall under the same guidelines as if you were doing an author signing and providing your own product - that is 30% of your sale price will be collected by us. All other transactions should be promoted and handled off-premises.
