Go books!

Go books!

With readers on a reverse migration to print, the “e-book terror has kind of subsided” for bookstores and publishers.

Happy Birthday, SATC. Seems appropriate to celebrate by reading since Carrie is a writer.

Happy Birthday, SATC. Seems appropriate to celebrate by reading since Carrie is a writer.

This Saturday is the anniversary of the S*x and the City premiere, and it’s hard for me to believe it’s been seventeen years. It couldn’t have come at a better time for me. Carrie, Miranda, Samanth...

This deserves a share. RIP, Manly Pointer.

Manley Pointer, who led the ostentation of peacocks at Flannery O’Connor’s Andalusia Farm, has left this mortal coil. The brilliant Kay Powell, longtime mistress of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s obit desk, pays tribute.

Huzzah!

And they say books have lost their relevancy.

All--this time last year I was celebrating the beginning of my journey to open a bookstore by attending the American Booksellers' Association's Winter Institute in Seattle. I was full of hope and excitement and dreams of the future. My goal was to have the store open by my 35th birthday, which is coming up in May. Life has, alas, gotten in the way and that particular goal is no longer feasible. BUT. I wanted to let you, my supporters and fellow book-lovers, know that this dream is far from dead. It is going to take longer than I hoped to get the doors open, but open them I shall. Keep your eyeballs on this page, friends. Keep the dream alive. Love, Amy

Hey everyone! Today is Jane Austen's birthday. Couldn't let that one go by without a virtual high five to my favorite manners satirist.

Jane Austen (/ˈdʒeɪn ˈɔːstən/; 16 December 1775 – 18 July 1817) was an English novelist whose works of romantic fiction, set among the landed gentry, earned her a place as one of the most widely read writers in English literature. Her realism, biting irony and social commentary as well as her acclai…

Here's a thing for you.

Litographs creates art from literature. We design t-shirts and posters from the text of classic books. For each sale, Litographs donates one book to a community in need.

Remember me? Hopefully I won't be on a once-a-month schedule forever, but Life continues to win over Dream right now. Here's a piece that is blowing my mind about a library to be published in the future. Wish I could live forever so I could see it!

Novelist says it is 'delicious' to be first contributor to the Future Library, which will compile 100 texts for publication in 2114

Neglectfulness continues apace, but hopefully will abate now that life is calming down a skosh. For the nonce, here is a link to a topic that fascinates the mess out of me--how we create pictures of characters in our minds when we read. (I don't really know where all those weird vocabulary words came from but it feels right, so, there you are.)

I have been downright neglectful of this page of late. My apologies, all. Stupid busy real life and it's stupid face. He...

I have been downright neglectful of this page of late. My apologies, all. Stupid busy real life and it's stupid face. Here's a little gem I rediscovered the other day. Reacting negatively to a main character is always an uncomfortable and interesting experience, doubly so when that character is female.

On the importance of unlikable female protagonists.
