Magazine1 is an online literary magazine operated by Bookstore1 that serves as both a showcase of excellent writing from around the world, but also as a literary hub for the Sarasota/St. Pete/Tampa area. Our mission is to create a space in which writers can explore the reaches of their imagination, and in that space cultivate a diverse community, both locally in the Sarasota area and the nation over.

Our Story

Bookstore1Sarasota was opened in 2011 with one mission: to bring a high-quality independent bookstore to the Sarasota area. Our passion for the joy of books inspired us in the beginning and continues to drive us today. We offer a shopping experience curated with our customers in mind, and we are gratified by the long-term relationships we have built with those who have come through our door: patrons and authors alike. Pay us a visit and join our Bookstore1 family of readers.
