Coming Soon: Corks, Cooks, & Books

Mindy Kuhn, owner of Warren Publishing, is thrilled to announce the launch of her second business. Kuhn, in conjunction with business partner, Shonali Thomas, will be opening Corks, Cooks, & Books, a unique, retail shop and wine bar in the late Spring of this year.  “I am so excited to offer our authors a home-base location where they will always be able to sell their books and participate in events,” Kuhn said.

​Kuhn and gourmet chef Shonali Thomas of SplenDishes Kitchen are eager to entertain customers with a multi-dimensional infusion of charcuterie boards, snacks, wine and beer, cooking classes, and books. “Since Shonali is a gourmet chef, you know the food will be good, plus she’s from Napa Valley, California—so you know the wine will be well-thought-out!” said Kuhn.

Located in Rock Hill, South Carolina in the Charlotte-metro region, this new space will become home to a variety of cooking and reading associated products. The store will also benefit Warren Publishing authors by hosting an assortment of events including readings, signings, Q&As, and interviews.

“Corks, Cooks, & Books is another way to bring publishing full circle. It’s a great way for me, as a publisher, to get inside the book-buying industry from another angle,” added Kuhn. 

“We haven’t forgotten our readers. A great selection of your favorite (and soon-to-be new favorite) titles will be included here. And we understand we’re still living in the age of COVID-19, which is why our outdoor patio is the perfect place to relax and have a drink.” 

Corks, Cooks, & Books will be sure to inspire creativity and enjoyment as soon as you walk in the door. Please follow our Facebook page along with that of Corks, Cooks & Books for all of the great news!
