Help a local bookshop hit
the road!

Everyone needs a hand on occasion, and it's hard to ask for help! But we believe in our mission, to champion indie authors and small presses. We know you will love them as much as we do! So please lend a hand if you can. Thank you for your time and attention!

We are indie-driven

Join the movement!

​I conceived of the Food for Thought Truck to introduce folks to the indie publishing scene and the diverse voices emerging from this quarter. When I first started writing, there was a stigma associated with self-publishing. But now that the digital slush pile at every agency and publishing house is far bigger than any physical hill onto which my work was tossed all those years ago, more and more people are doing the work of putting their ideas out into the world themselves, unwilling or unable to wait for gatekeepers to finally give them a chance. It's the next step in the evolution of the book business, and the Food for Thought Truck wants to be at the forefront of this historic expansion.

​

This is how we work:

  • Every indie title we sell has been vetted by me or by someone I trust

  • We don't engage on social media, we're all about face-to-face contact

  • We sell used books to boost the support we give indies

  • We don't return indies! If it is on our shelf, we believe in it and it will stay there until it finds its forever home
