ARGONAUT BOOKS

It's Write More as usual, but with some of our lovely local writers and booksellers in attendance to give you a hand if you'd like one.

...

Do you need time and space to get organised for the month ahead? Do you need to make a bit of progress, and get a bit of advice on, a project you’ve been procrastinating on? Is it hard to carve out time and find a space that’s just for you? If the answer to any of these questions is yes then this is group for you!

Our regular positive-peer-pressure writing/admin space. It’s spot to chat, throw ideas around, get some feedback on a draft, network, or just knuckle down, stick your headphones in, and get something done! Take an evening at the start of the month to get your ducks in a row and get organised.

We split our space into two groups - happy to chat or heads down - so you can come along and share what you’re working on and get some feedback on projects.

For your ticket price you get: bottomless tea/coffee/hot chocolate, access to WiFi (or blocked entirely from the WiFi if needed, we’ll even look after your phone for you), and a 10% discount on books on the night if you want to give yourself a little treat for a job well done.

Book Fringe FAQ

How do I get to the bookshop?

We are situated on all major bus routes which run down Leith Walk, with the 7,14,16,25 and 49 stopping directly outside our front door. If you’re driving, we have a big Tesco car park right behind the shop whihch allows for up to three hours parking. Please do be aware that the Tram is currently culminating service at Edinburgh West End due to ongoing issues, and so will not be serving the Foot of the Walk Tram stop.

Will your café remain open?

Our café will stay open to provide both hot and cold drinks throughout the evening. 

What are your accessibility arrangements in the shop? 

Our shop is a fully accessible venue, set over one level and designed to acccomodate both wheelchairs and prams. Do let us know should you have any further accessibility concerns and a member of staff will be happy to help.
