In fact, according to the American Booksellers Association, this year\u2019s event promises to be the largest ever, with over 2,000 indie bookstores participating in the day\u2019s activities. Participating stores usually put their own unique spin on the day\u2019s events, and book lovers can expect to find exclusive offers, author signings, games, scavenger hunts, refreshments, book crawls, and other fun activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While primarily a U.S.-based event, authors everywhere can still take part in the excitement. And why not? According to bookstores who participated in last year\u2019s event, foot traffic and sales for the day rivaled the type of liveliness typically seen during the holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Draft2Digital + Bookshop.org: Your Indie Bookstore Connection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thanks to our partnership with Bookshop.org, announced in February, your ebooks can be ordered from more than 3,400 indie bookstores throughout the U.S. and United Kingdom. Bookshop.org\u2019s sleek new ebook app makes it easy for your readers to purchase an ebook while still benefitting the indie bookstore community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you may have read in our Bookshop.org partnership announcement, readers can select their favorite indie bookstore to support from a list of local bookstores at Bookshop.org. When a reader purchases a book, their preferred store receives 100% of the profit. If no store is selected, the sale supports a shared profit pool for all partner stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you've published a print-on-demand paperback (POD) through D2D Print, your POD book is also available at Bookshop.org. That means while readers are browsing their favorite shop during Indie Bookstore Day, if they can\u2019t find your book on the shelves, they can ask the store to order the POD version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Indie Authors for Indie Bookstores!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In our partnership announcement with Bookshop.org, we stated that distribution of free indie ebooks to Bookshop.org was expected in the second quarter of 2026. We also stated that the D2D and Bookshop.org promotions teams were putting their heads together to figure out some really cool joint merchandising features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019re happy to report that both checklist items have come to fruition. If you want to distribute your free ebooks to Bookshop.org, now you can do so. On the merchandising front, Bookshop.org is currently showcasing 19 D2D authors in their \u201cIndie Authors for Indie Bookstores\u201d promotion at Bookshop.org\/ebooks and on the Home and Explore pages in the app. The feature, which is intended to draw reader attention to indie authors during Indie Bookstore Day, will be moved to a more prominent location for the Indie Bookstore Day weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here's what Bookshop.org's promo page looks like\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"666\" src=\"https:\/\/draft2digital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/unnamed-1-1024x666.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-209594\" srcset=\"https:\/\/draft2digital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/unnamed-1-1024x666.png 1024w, https:\/\/draft2digital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/unnamed-1-980x637.png 980w, https:\/\/draft2digital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/unnamed-1-480x312.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1024px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Celebrate\u00a0Indie\u00a0Bookstore Day<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>1.<\/strong>&nbsp; Right click on the following social media image and&nbsp;save it to your desktop.
