Interview with Denise Phillips - Owner, Gathering Volumes Bookstore (Summer Reading Series Part 3 of 4)

This is Part 3 in my 4-part Summer Reading Series. The goals are to either encourage you to read or inspire you to write your first book.

 

Part One was my interview with Alisha and Tracy at Way Public Library about their summer reading programs. https://www.perrysburgpodcast.com/100 

 

Part Two was my interview with Perrysburg resident Bill Williams about his first book, 20 Years of Internet Humor and Other Interesting Things: Volume One. He also shared advice and inspiration for first-time authors. https://www.perrysburgpodcast.com/101 

 

Part Three is my interview with Denise Phillips. She owns and operates Gathering Volumes Bookstore, an independent bookstore located in Perrysburg. 🎉 Denise shares her inspiration to open an indie bookstore, talks about the layout of the store, and discusses book fairs for children and adults, events, book clubs, her staff, the store's website, newsletter, and social media pages, what's next for Gathering Volumes, and more.

 

This Summer Reading Series wraps up next week with Part 4. July 18 is my interview with Perrysburg resident and author, Gary Franks. Gary will talk about his books, the research needed to put his books together, his co-authors, advice for first-time authors, and more. 

 

Enjoy your summer! Thank you for listening to The Perrysburg Podcast.
