Creating a Salon: The Magic of Conversations That Matter
A practical and personal exploration of the transformative power of salons–in many cases, a next-level evolution of a book club—with hosting advice tailored for different goals, budgets, and personalities. Blending focused and informed advice with heartfelt reflection, book industry professional Linda-Marie Barrett shares her experience hosting salons at her home—the lessons learned as well as the life-changing connections she discovered—and guides readers through the whats, whys, and hows of creating their own salons. As a bonus, this book includes 14 salon starter kits, each on a different theme, to help readers host with confidence.
Linda-Marie Barrett is a writer, editor, and executive director of the Southern Independent Booksellers Alliance (SIBA). She edited and contributed to Malaprop’s bestselling serial novel Naked Came the Leaf Peeper, and is a contributor to Spinning Toward the Sun: Essays on Writing, Resilience, and the Creative Life, an anthology benefitting the recovery of Asheville, NC after Hurricane Helene. She lives with her husband, writer and blogger Jon Mayes, in Asheville, North Carolina, where she has been hosting her Black Swan Salon since 2017. Please visit her online at lindamariebarrett.com.
