  1. intrigued by Bookswim, like netflix for books, but would people pay to rent books? does convenience=value? could it affect libraries? how?
  2. B&N is set to release its own ereader for the holidays. Is this bad news for the kindle?
  3. Galleycat says preorders for Sarah Palin's memoir are on par with Dan Brown's. Seriously? People want to read a book written by her?
  4. will the mash ups never stop? del rey books just bought little women and werewolves
  5. officially back from my twitter hiatus! The book trailer for Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters is a must see! http://bit.ly/2KmdT
  6. likes that Borders is attempting to expand their YA sections in several superstores
  7. SO smart for Hachette to reprint Michael Jackson biography that had gone out of print with an update about the last 5 years of his life.
  8. Wondering how Sarah Palin's resignation will affect her memoir due to be published by HarperCollins in the near future... who knows?
  9. Finds it both hilarious and clever that Borders UK created an online dating site for book lovers called Happily Ever After
  10. the price of the Kindle 2 just dropped despite growing sales from $359 to $299 but TechCrunch readers think $199 is the perfect price point
  11. Something not to include in a cover letter for a book submission- "I know how to write" seriously? I hope so.
  12. Read this: http://bit.ly/Vw2om. Michael Murphy on making the future up as we go along.
  13. just don't think adults would be interested in a fantasy book about an underground rat battle... am I wrong? does the concept have a market?
  14. http://bit.ly/nxGpA College kids signed a deal with Penguin for "Twitterature" -the World's greatest books presented in 20 tweets or less.
  15. find it hilarious that Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is #9 on Oprah's list of 25 books for summer. http://bit.ly/1mOpy. Did she read it?
  16. As more traditional forms of book reviews disappear, online outlets replace them. Follow FLW Books for new suggestions. http://bit.ly/vkIRX
  17. Writing a fictional Twitter feed can further explore characters and backstory for novels creating fans not just readers http://bit.ly/RYS0f
  18. Simon & Schuster's teen networking site, Pulse It- great way to get direct feedback from their audience. Being aware of your readers is key.
  19. just saw some character images from Tim Burton's version of Alice in Wonderland. All I have to say is I can't wait. http://bit.ly/2ny7Bd
  20. @KrisRad Plenty of tweeting characters. Think about cult followings, i.e. Edward Cullen, Harry Potter, Sookie Stackhouse, Gossip Girls, etc.
