Listly by Katherine Robertson-Pilling
I just completed my 10-week US book tour of Chicago and the Southwest. These first 13 bookstores now have The Wheel of Creativity on their shelves. Some of them I discovered through you, but I know there are hundreds more out there like them. Help me support independent American booksellers. Add your favorite bookstore to the list! Then stop by and ask for "The Wheel of Creativity: Taking Your Place in the Adventure of Life” by Katherine Robertson-Pilling. www.wheelofcreativity.com

The largest independently owned and operated outdoor bookstore in the U.S.A. Since Bart’s Books began in 1964 it has housed nearly a million books ranging from the thirty-five cent specials to rare, out of print first editions, and art books valued in the thousands of dollars. Quirky and cool!
