Book Consignment Program for Florida Authors
Please read all of the information below before contacting us and/or submitting an application.
2025 Update: Starting in 2025, we will not be accepting books by mail, unless otherwise agreed upon between the Author and Spellbound Bookstore. Books must be dropped off in person. We will no longer mail books back if a consignment is not renewed. Books must be picked up at the end of a consignment or they will be donated.
Local Authors are encouraged to visit our Author Events page to learn about other ways they can partner with us.
About Our Book Consignment Program
We love working with indie authors! We have a dedicated Local Authors Shelf in our store featuring books by Florida authors. Our customers really enjoy browsing this shelf and shopping local! Please Note: This program is only available to authors currently residing in Florida.
Book Consignment is an arrangement between self-published and/or small press local Florida authors and Spellbound Books to sell titles from our brick-and-mortar store for a specific period. Authors drop off book copies and are paid a consignment split for each sale after the consignment period ends. In this way we are able to feature Local Authors that write a variety of genres for all ages! We routinely feature this shelf on our social media (see an example here).
At this time, we do not stock the following genres:Â
Story/Poetry/Anthology collections
Cookbooks, Travel Books and/or Coffee Table books
Religious novels and/or religious non-fiction
How-To's, Guides, or Educational texts
DISCLOSURE: Spellbound Books will do everything within its control to secure and protect books during the consignment period. Spellbound Books is not responsible for theft, loss, or damage to books consigned.
