Oxford Indie Book Fair Online Magazine Launch

Dear ,



We hope you are keeping safe and well through the extraordinary conditions of the pandemic.

We remain committed to hold the first Oxford Indie Book Fair, once we get through the crisis. The event is provisionally set for Saturday 21 November – by which time it is certainly hoped that the conditions will be vastly improved and deemed safe for the fair.

In the meantime we are delighted to launch our on-line Oxford Indie Book Fair magazine.

https://www.oxfordindiebookfair.co.uk/oibf-magazine-issue-1-may-2020/

You will see that we have some excellent contributions from local writers and invite contributions from you and other exhibitors for the editions to follow, beginning with 1 June. You'll notice that your exhibitor website entries are included and will be in all editions.

Can we please ask you to help circulate and publicise our free on-line magazine through your own social media, emails, and other press, media and PR outlets you use? It is in all our self-interests. There is huge potential here to bring our work to a much wider audience. If all exhibitors and performers send to just ten on-line contacts, that would be an immediate 600. In turn, among those there would be further re-sending to other interested readers with a snowballing effect. We can generate a massive accumulative reach to new buyers and readers of our books.

Of course we are working hard to promote the magazine in lots of ways but “word of mouth” from our exhibitors and performers is a powerful and effective boost to spreading our work far and wide.

We wish you happy summer and hope that it can be enjoyed, despite the dreadful pandemic.

Andy, James, Ray and Sylvia.
