A Letter and a Special Offer from the Owner

What's Going On?

There are several announcements in this somewhat abbreviated newsletter that might cause you to wonder what is going on with the store and the cafe.  It seems easier and more consistent with the way we do business to address it directly rather than letting people wonder.

The short version is this -- Business overall at both the bookstore and the cafe is quite good, all things considered.  But two of the things to be considered are that that economy is not as good as it could be and the cafe took a fair amount longer to open than I had anticipated.

Sales at the bookstore have been down very slightly, both last year and the year before, which is actually damn good considering what 2008 and 2009 were like for the national economy as a whole.  Other than that, the store continues along as it has for years.  In a great part that is thanks to Jude, Jeremy, Claud, Cary, Heather and Chris who are, without a doubt, the best group of people I've ever had the pleasure to work with.  Their hard work and skill have ensured that the bookstore continues to operate smoothly, despite the time and attention that opening the cafe has taken from me.

The cafe is doing very well for a business that's only been open for two and a half months.  The staff has shaken down superbly and they're all doing a great job.  Further, our customers seem very happy with our prices and our products.  But February is a poor month for business in general and the rainy weather hasn't helped.  Initially I had hoped to open in the spring, which would have given me a much nicer curve on our sales, but that wasn't practical and waiting out the winter months while paying rent didn't seem like a good idea either.  So we opened in mid-December about six months past the date I was hoping for.

The total result of all of this is that, as a company that's just opened a new business venture, I would like to improve our cash reserves.  Though we currently have cash in the bank and no debt, our reserves are not sufficient to make me completely comfortable nor are they large enough to deal with a sudden, large and unexpected expense (like a severe illness on my part, a serious problem with the equipment at the cafe, or any number of the other things that the world can throw in the way of a small business).  So I'm taking several steps to improve that situation, including some sales to move along some of our inventory and dispose of excess equipment & fixtures as well as offering some of you a nice perk for helping us raise cash.  Details on all those things follow.

My purpose in writing this note is two-fold.  In the first place, I wanted to let you, our customers, know where we, as a business, stand.  You are all an important part of what we do at Borderlands and your support over the years is the reason we are still here, despite the difficulties that plague independent bookstores.  I feel that, considering the current economic troubles and the constant pressure on independent bookstores, you deserve to know what's going on and how the business is doing.  Secondly I wanted to let you know -- we're not going anywhere.  None of the sales and so forth that we're doing are the first signs of our demise.  It's simply a matter of my caution and desire to make sure that, regardless what surprises get thrown our way, we'll be here in the years to come.

Thanks for the support and attention.

Regards,
Alan Beatts

One Hundred Special Gift Certificates

When a business wants to have extra capital for an expansion or special project a common way of doing it is to take out a small business loan.  When I was considering Borderlands' needs for the next six months I thought about going that route but there were several factors that dissuaded me.  Obviously one of the things was that, right now, it's hard to qualify for loans.  Despite being in the book business, we could probably get one (our inventory is quite valuable, we have a very good lease, and there are several other things we've got going for us) but it would be difficult and the interest rate would be probably be relatively high.  On a personal level, I have some questions about the conduct of some of the larger banks over the past two years and I'm not sure that I want to support them by bringing them my business.  Also, the amount I want is pretty modest in terms of business loans.  And finally, I loathe being in debt.

So, I have a different plan that I think will achieve what I'm trying to do and that also keeps to one of my basic principles in running Borderlands.  I've always aimed to do business with my friends and customers where ever possible.  You have all supported my business and I like to support you and your businesses when I can.

Instead of borrowing money for the store, we're going to offer one hundred special gift certificates.  Each one will cost $100.  Unlike a normal gift certificate, it won't give you $100 of purchasing power at the store . . . it'll give you $120.  But also unlike a normal gift certificate, you won't be able to use it until the 1st of August this year.  In other words, you buy the certificate this month and in five months or so you gain $20.

If you do the math, it seems like a crazy deal since, if it were a loan, it works out to more than 40% interest over a year term.  But, from my standpoint, it's not bad at all.  First off, you'll be spending the certificate on inventory at the store, which I get at a discount.  Second, it is much simpler for me and has a much surer result than jumping through all the hoops necessary to get a loan for the business.  For you it's a great deal since the return (if it were an investment, which is isn't -- the people in charge of looking at securities and investments wouldn't like that at _all_) is much better than you could expect from almost anything else that you could do with a hundred bucks.

The certificates are transferable if you want to buy one for someone else and they're good for anything in the store, including special orders.  But you might want to act fast.  I'm only going to issue 100 of them and when we're out, we're out and it's not an offer that I'm likely to repeat.

If you live outside of San Francisco or even outside of the United States, you can participate in this as well and I hope that you do.  We are happy to sell these certificates by mail and, since we'll be tracking the purchaser names, certificate numbers, and balances, you can buy one and then use it for mail orders to your heart's content.  Plus there's an added bonus -- the person in the United States who orders one of these certificates and who is located the farthest from San Francisco (based on the billing address of their credit card) will get an added certificate good for $10 and useable immediately after the 100th certificate is sold.  And, not to leave our international customers out, we'll do the same thing for the international customer who's the farthest from San Francisco (and that is going be be based on their mailing address).  Just give a call or drop us an email and we'll be happy to set you up.

I sincerely believe that this offer is one of the finest sorts of business deals -- a win/win proposition -- and I hope that you will take this chance to support Borderlands while profiting yourself.


Chapter One - Event Information, News, and Special Features

Sales at Borderlands

March is the Month of Sales

Every weekend this month we're going to be running a different sale.  We'll be starting with . . .

The DVD Close-out Sale (Saturday, March 6th to Friday, March 12th)
We've been selling DVDs for quite a while now and, though it's been fun and some of our customers have really liked it, the section never has really taken off.  And so I've decided to stop selling them.  Which means that we're getting rid of every single one and I'm willing to take a loss on them.  The sale will start with a 25% discount on all DVDs on Saturday.  On Sunday the discount is 35%.  Monday is 40% and it goes up by 5% per day 'till Friday when the discount will be an unheard of (at least around here) 60% off.  At least that's what the discount will be if we have any left to sell.  For you -- it's a bit like playing a game of chicken -- you can wait and get a bigger discount but that means the chance of the DVD you wanted selling is bigger as well.  You bet the odds and you take your chances.

Next up is . . .

The Hardcover Weekend Sale (Saturday, March 13th and Sunday, March 14th)
All the hardcovers in the store will be 20% off for the whole weekend.  And . . . the discount extends to our collectable book section behind the counter.  In more than 12 years of running Borderlands, I've _never_ offered more than a 10% discount on our rare 1st and limited editions but I'm going to do it just this once.  So, if there's something that's been catching your eye, now's the time to grab it.

The following weekend we'll be doing the same with . . .

The Trade Paperback Weekend Sale (Saturday, March 20th and Sunday, March 21st)
Same as the hardcovers last weekend, we'll be discounting our trade paperbacks (i.e. the big, not-pocket-sized ones) by 20% for the weekend.  And, like last weekend, our rare book section is included in the sale (but, only the trade paperbacks in that section, of course).

And then we're going to close out the month with . . .

Two-Fer-One Used Books (Saturday, March 27th to Wednesday, March 31st)
Buy _any_ used book (excluding our rare books) and get a second used book for free.  Go through the shelves, pick out pairs of books, pay for only half of them.  Simple.  And such a nice way to stock up for the last few weeks of the rainy season.

Sounds like a hell of a month, doesn't it?  But, after all the rank consumerism what better way to finish up than with a . . . garage sale!

NOTE: DATE CHANGED TO APRIL 17TH AND 18TH  Borderlands' First Ever Garage Sale (Saturday, April 3rd and Sunday, April 4th)
Well, it's not _really_ a garage sale.  More a sidewalk, cafe, bookstore and basement sale.  Over the years we've accumulated all sorts of stuff around the store ranging from spare tools from the innumerable remodels and furniture projects, to shelves and fixtures that don't fit anywhere anymore, to odd bits and pieces like a replica of a 15th century Scottish broadsword, a manual typewriter (which still works quite well), and other weird stuff.  For two days we're going to put it all on tables in the store, the cafe, the sidewalk and perhaps the basement (depending on how much space we need).  Come by and get not only good deals on stuff but also a piece of Borderlands history.

News

The first writer's group at the cafe is starting.  This from Matt Maenpaa, regular customer and friend of the staff:

"Are you an aspiring writer? A consummate storyteller?  Do you love to write science-fiction, fantasy and horror?

I'm looking to gather a group of writers together who are focused on those genres to discuss our work.  The purpose of the group would be to provide feedback and support, from editing to criticism.  I want to find serious candidates, those for whom writing is a passion and a need, and who want to refine their work to a professional level.  It would be preferred that your focus is on original creations.

Poetry, serials, novels, novellas and short stories are all welcome. I'm planning on meeting once a week at Borderlands Cafe for our discussions.  Please send me an email to mattmaenpaa@gmail.com.

Regards,
Matt Maenpaa"

Seanan McGuire, A LOCAL HABITATION (DAW, Mass Market, $7.99) Tuesday, March 9th at 5:00 pm - Join us for another rollicking evening with Seanan McGuire, and check out the second of the October Daye novels, an awesome and atypical urban fantasy series set in the Bay Area!  A LOCAL HABITATION finds Toby (basically) recovered from her latest misadventures, and simply called upon to locate a kinda-missing person.  But nothing is that simple for Toby, and she soon finds herself trapped in a building that houses a Faery dot-com startup and has a flexible idea of consensual reality and geometry, a teenage sidekick, and a whole bunch of unpleasant murders of critters who should be immortal.  It's darkly funny and well worth reading.  We'll basically have the whole traveling circus on hand here, with music from all or part of Tricky Pixie, raffle prizes, and general good-natured chaos! See you here!

Steampunk Film Night at the Variety Preview Room, 582 Market Street, Wednesday, March 10th at 6:00 pm - This Steampunk Film Night is being held in conjunction with Nova Albion, the Steampunk Exhibition Convention.  "The Mysterious Geographic Explorations of Jasper Morello" - 30 mins.  "Dr. Horrible's Sing A Long Blog" - 43 mins."Perfect Creature" - 88 mins  Come in costume!  A suggested $10 donation at the door goes to support the convention; bar proceeds and tips support Variety Children's Charity.  Seating is limited; numbers will be given at the door to ensure that first come, first seated; we'll try and fit everyone in!  Reception and cash bar opens at 6:00PM  Movies begin at 7:00 PM - free popcorn!  Borderlands will be on hand to sell books.

Nova Albion Steampunk Convention, Friday, March 12th - Sunday March 14th - Borderlands will have tables in the Dealers' Room at this awesome new-ish convention! "The Nova Albion Steampunk Exhibition (in Emeryville) takes the best elements of traditional science fiction and fantasy conventions, combines them with the passion, ingenuity, and hands-on workshops of Maker events, and places it all in a steam-powered, neo-Victorian setting that spans the 1830s through the early 1910s, from the cultured salons of gaslit London to the rugged coast of San Francisco. Tickets and more info at <http://www.steampunkexhibition.com>.  We'll look forward to seeing you there -- we know it's going to be tons of fun!

The Hardcover Weekend Sale, Saturday, March 13th and Sunday, March 14th - All the hardcovers in the store will be 20% off for the whole weekend.  And . . . the discount extends to our collectable book section behind the counter.  In more than 12 years of running Borderlands, I've _never_ offered more than a 10% discount on our rare 1st and limited editions but I'm going to do it just this once.  So, if there's something that's been catching your eye, now's the time to grab it.

Chaz Brenchley and Daniel Fox, JADE MAN'S SKIN (Del Rey, Trade Paperback, $15.00), Saturday, March 13th at 3:00 pm - We are delighted to welcome Chaz Brenchley and Daniel Fox to the store, especially since they're the same person!  Daniel's novel DRAGON IN CHAINS was one of Borderlands' best-selling titles at the World Fantasy Convention last year.  Now he's back with the sequel.  From his website: "In this second volume of his soaring epic, Daniel Fox weaves the ancient myths and legends of feudal China into a fantasy world of brutal war and brittle passion, immortal gods and mystical creatures."  Don't miss the chance to meet Chaz/Daniel and check out these incredible books.

John Everson, THE 13TH (Leisure, Mass Market, $7.99), and Alice Henderson, VORACIOUS (Jove, Mass Market, $7.99), Saturday, March 13th at 6:00 pm - Borderlands is happy to welcome two fabulous horror authors to the store!  John Everson is the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of the novels COVENANT and SACRIFICE.  His work has appeared in more than 50 magazines, and in his copious spare time, he's also an editor and a publisher.  Alice Henderson is an author, adventurer and translator of medieval Welsh.  She's best known for her Buffy the Vampire Slayer novels, but her newest novel VORACIOUS is getting rave reviews.  Don't miss the chance to meet and chat with these two fascinating authors!

SF in SF presents authors Chaz Brenchley, Daniel Fox and Malinda Lo at the Variety Preview Room, 582 Market Street, Saturday, March 13th at 7:00 pm - We are very excited to help SF in SF welcome these authors!  Each author will read a selection from their work, followed by Q&A from the audience moderated by author Terry Bisson.  Authors will schmooze & sign books after in the lounge. Books available for sale courtesy of Borderlands Books.  Seating is limited, so first come, first seated.  Bar proceeds benefit Variety Childrens Charity - learn more at <http://www.varietync.org/>.  We REALLY encourage you to take BART into the City, or use MUNI to get here - parking can be problematic in San Francisco, to say the least.  We are less than one block away from the Montgomery St. station.  Trust us - you don't want to be looking for parking and be late for the event!  Phone (night of event) 415-572-1015.  Questions? Email sfinsfevents@gmail.com.

The Trade Paperback Weekend Sale, Saturday, March 20th and Sunday, March 21st - Same as the hardcovers last weekend, we'll be discounting our trade paperbacks (i.e. the big, not-pocket-sized ones) by 20% for the weekend.  And, like last weekend, our rare book section is included in the sale (but, only the trade paperbacks in that section, of course).

Steve Englehart, THE LONG MAN (Tor, Hardcover, $25.99), Saturday, March 20th at 3:00 pm - Steve Englehart is best known for his years of amazing comics work, but you should really check out his novel THE POINT MAN. . .originally published in 1981, it has just been reprinted by Tor, along with the brand-new sequel THE LONG MAN.  Here's what Steve has to say about the original book "Well, I went to Europe to write the Great American Novel, and here's what I came back with. It was the summation of my understanding of magick after years of writing 'Dr Strange,' and that required a freer canvas than comics could provide.  I asked for the byline of "Stephen" Englehart because Stephen King used "Stephen" and I thought that's what "real" authors did - and have regretted it ever since. For better or for worse, I'm Steve, and the other has sounded pretentious to me since the moment I first saw it in print.  Robert Anton Wilson got the front blurb because he was hot - and a writer who'd inspired me on many levels, though he didn't know me from Adam - but I was more moved to get a quote, used on the back cover, from Theodore Sturgeon, a true visionary.  Probably contacted while half asleep, Sturgeon said, 'Full of reach and astonishment. . . .Few working writers alive have his sense of sound and of scene.'"  We're delighted to welcome Steve to the store and hope you'll jump on this chance to meet him.

Tracy Hickman, THE SECRET OF THE DRAGON (Tor, Hardcover, $24.99) Wednesday, March 24th at 7:00 pm - Over twenty years, Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman have collaborated on more than 30 novels, including the first novel in the Dragonlance chronicles.  Now they're working on the Dragonships of Vindras series, and you'll have a chance to meet and chat with Tracy Hickman, and maybe even learn the SECRET OF THE DRAGON!

Two-Fer-One Used Books, Saturday, March 27th to Wednesday, March 31st - Buy _any_ used book (excluding our rare books) and get a second used book for free.  Go through the shelves, pick out pairs of books, pay for only half of them.  Simple.  And such a nice way to stock up for the last few weeks of the rainy season.

Blake Charlton, SPELLWRIGHT (Tor, Hardcover, $24.99) Saturday, March 27th at 3:00 pm - We're pleased to welcome Blake Charlton for the debut of his first novel, SPELLWRIGHT, which, as an editor, particularly strikes a chord with me.  From Blake's website: "Imagine a world in which you could peel written words off a page and make them physically real. You might pick your teeth with a sentence fragment, protect yourself with defensive paragraphs, or thrust a sharply-worded sentence at an enemy's throat.  Such a world is home to Nicodemus Weal, an apprentice at the wizardly academy of Starhaven. Because of how fast he can forge the magical runes that create spells, Nicodemus was thought to be the Halcyon, a powerful spellwright prophesied to prevent an event called the War of Disjunction, which would destroy all human language. There was only one problem: Nicodemus couldn't spell.  Runes must be placed in the correct order to create a spell. Deviation results in a "misspell" - a flawed text that behaves in an erratic, sometimes lethal, manner. And Nicodemus has a disability, called cacography, that causes him to misspell texts simply by touching them.  Now twenty-five, Nicodemus lives in the aftermath of failing to fulfill prophecy. He finds solace only in reading knightly romances and in the teachings of Magister Shannon, an old blind wizard who's left academic politics to care for Starhaven's disabled students.  But when a powerful wizard is murdered with a misspell, Shannon and Nicodemus becomes the primary suspects. Proving their innocence becomes harder when the murderer begins killing male cacographers one by one . . . and all evidence suggests that Nicodemus will be next. Hunted by both investigators and a hidden killer, Shannon and Nicodemus must race to discover the truth about the murders, the nature of magic, and themselves."

NOTE: DATE CHANGED TO APRIL 17TH AND 18TH  Borderlands' First Ever Garage Sale, Saturday, April 3rd and Sunday, April 4th - Well, it's not _really_ a garage sale.  More a sidewalk, cafe, bookstore and basement sale.  Over the years we've accumulated all sorts of stuff around the store ranging from spare tools from the innumerable remodels and furniture projects, to shelves and fixtures that don't fit anywhere anymore, to odd bits and pieces like a replica of a 15th century Scottish broadsword, a manual typewriter (which still works quite well), and other weird stuff.  For two days we're going to put it all on tables in the store, the cafe, the sidewalk and perhaps the basement (depending on how much space we need).  Come by and get not only good deals on stuff but also a piece of Borderlands history.

Dan Wells, I AM NOT A SERIAL KILLER (Tor, Hardcover, $21.99) Friday, April 9th at 7:00 pm - We're pleased to welcome Dan Wells to the store, and even happier now that he's calmed us with reassuring lapel buttons that say "I am not a serial killer".  His novel has been described as "like Dexter as a teenager," and it's getting great reviews.  Come meet Dan and have a nice, unthreatening chat with him in the cafe, as well as hearing him read an excerpt from the book -- we promise to hide all the knives.  From Tor, about the novel: "John Wayne Cleaver is a troubled teenager with psychopathic tendencies who works in a mortuary. When his identification with serial killers allows him to recognize that one is now active in his town, he decides it's up to him to catch the killer, who turns out to be a creature masquerading as a human, a monster John can only call 'a demon.'"

Gail Carriger, CHANGELESS, (Orbit, Mass Market, $7.99) Saturday, April 10th at 3:00 pm - We are simply giddy to host the return of Gail Carriger and her marvelously incorrigible character Alexia!  From the book: "Alexia Tarabotti, the Lady Woolsey, awakens in the wee hours of the mid-afternoon to find her husband, who should be decently asleep like any normal werewolf, yelling at the top of his lungs. Then he disappears - leaving her to deal with a regiment of supernatural soldiers encamped on her doorstep, a plethora of exorcised ghosts, and an angry Queen Victoria.  But Alexia is armed with her trusty parasol, the latest fashions, and an arsenal of biting civility. Even when her investigations take her to Scotland, the backwater of ugly waistcoats, she is prepared: upending werewolf pack dynamics as only the soulless can. She might even find time to track down her wayward husband, if she feels like it."  We know you'll love this second book of The Parasol Protectorate just as much as the first.
