Bookstore Author Talk Poster (Paper Collage)
Collage roughness matches exactly what a literary audience finds authentic, and the ransom-note headline is inherently shareable — far more repostable than a templated event flyer.

Design an A3 portrait poster for an author talk at {bookstore_name}, featuring {author_name} discussing {book_title}. Style: analog paper collage — torn book pages, vintage library cards, masking tape strips, typewriter text fragments and stencil-print textured shapes layered with visible cut edges and soft shadows. Center: a halftone-printed silhouette of a reader collaged from newspaper texture. Assemble the headline {book_title} ransom-note style from mismatched cut-out letters; place {author_name} on a tilted paper label. A stamped ticket graphic carries {event_datetime}. Palette: aged cream, ink black and one punchy red. The result should feel hand-made, literary and slightly rebellious, like an indie zine cover.Variables
