Thank you so much for your interest in having your book carried at Whistler's Daughter. We’re grateful that you’ve thought of our shop as a potential home for your work, and we deeply value the creativity and talent of our local writing community.
We receive dozens of book submission requests each week, and while we wish we could say yes to every title, our shelf space and staff capacity are limited. Our goal is to thoughtfully curate a selection of books that align with the mission, vision, and values of our store—and that we believe will resonate most strongly with our customer base.
To help us fairly and efficiently review submissions, we ask that all authors complete the questionnaire below. Each submission is reviewed by our bookselling team, and we’ll reach out if we believe your title is a good fit for our store at this time.
Please note:
- Submission does not guarantee placement in the store
- We do NOT accept submissions created through the use of AI, especially text and/or illustrations.
- Our review process takes 2- 4 weeks. Due to the volume of submissions, we may not be able to provide individual feedback on all submissions.
- If your book is a good fit, we will contact you directly regarding next steps
- This questionnaire is intended for authors only. If you represent an author, please forward the link directly to the author. If you represent a publisher, please reach out to us through your company's sales and marketing team.
If you'd like to provide us with a physical review copy of your book, please send your copy to the below mailing address:

*Please note that any review copies mailed to us will not be returned to the author upon review.
Thank you again for sharing your work with us and for supporting independent bookstores.
