Welcome, welcome! Creators ahoy!

Bates Books is a book store geared toward authors and creators that just don't get seen. Following in this theme, Erika Bates (owner of Bates Books) has reached out to local creators and they have responded with a passion. Out of the fifty some-odd emails and messages she has sent out to local creators, forty six have responded - forty four of which are interested in being Creators of the Month.

For those of you doing the math on this one, that's almost four years worth of monthly creators. Now the only trick is getting in a physical store so these fantastic creators can get displayed and receive the praise they deserve.
