Cyberflanerie: Ken Albala, Ellen Prentiss Campbell, Susan Merrell, Zack Rogow, San Miguel Writers Conference, Oxt, Leslie Wells, Burning Man's Economist

Ken Albala's Food Rant Blog.

My amiga the fabulous writer Ellen Prentiss Campbell interviews Susan Scarf Merrell about her new novel and the influence of Shirley Jackson.

Zack Rogow on Literary Fame
(So true…)
An outstanding example of a cover
designed for Kindle

The new bilingual blog of the San Miguel Writers Conference.

Oxt: the new word that will make your slightly simpler, forever.

"A New York Editor and Author Goes Indie," Leslie Well's eye-opening guest-blog for Jane Friedman. (Love that Kindle cover!)

Stayed tuned for an avalanche of blog posts: Rose Mary Salum's splendid anthology, Lisa Sharp on Cananea, and Araceli Ardón on the magnificent Missions of the Sierra Gorda. And I'm working on Marfa Mondays podcast #14, on the Apaches. Spent the weekend updating the website for my latest book-- more updates to do-- but anyway, check it out here.

Hugh Howey's Author Earnings


Jane Friedman shows the changing face of publishing in 5 charts

(This is why so much of my focus these past few years has been on publishing Kindles and making podcasts.)

The last installation of novelist Carmen Amato's Bookstores of the Future series

(P.S. My ancient ode to bookstores over at Red Room.)

Thank you, dear Gregory Gibson, one of my favorite writers and the best rare book dealer blogger, I am honored to find "Madam Mayo" on your blog roll at Bookman's Log.

Lucas Klein on Translation and Translation Studies as a Social Movement


SURF ON, BODACIOUS READER-WRITER:

Ellen Prentiss Campbell: A New Writer to Watch

... because she's doing great work. I've read her novel in progress--- I have such a feeling, it's going to be big. She's reading next Wednesday January 23rd at the delightful (one of my all-time favorite bookshops--- this one even serves afternoon tea) Riverby Books, 417 East Capitol St. SE (just down the street from the Folger Library) in Washington DC--- yes, right there in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol, as part of Monica Jacobe's innovative A Space Inside reading series. The event is open the public. More anon.
