Every story deserves a space to be heard.

The BLACKOUT Author Showcase is a recurring in-store experience created for independent authors who are ready to share their work directly with the community. Held every third Saturday, this event brings together a small, intentional group of writers for a powerful afternoon of storytelling, connection, and visibility.

We keep it intimate—just 5 authors per showcase—so each participant has the opportunity to truly engage with readers, present their work, and be fully seen.

Who This Is For

This showcase is open to:

• Authors whose books are currently featured in Liberation Station Bookstore, or
• Authors who have already submitted their work for review

📢 To Our Independent Authors
Book signings, showcases, or any event featuring a book for sale must go through our Independent Author Submission Process first.

If you haven’t submitted your work yet, you can do that here: 👉 Submit Your Work
