I’m in Manitoba, Canada’s Minnesota, for Winnipeg’s THIN AIR authors festival. So I’ll be sporadically blogging from my very nicely appointed hotel room (they know how to treat the authors here, perhaps because when you leave the hotel room……… I kid, I kid because it’s my job. I’m in a really nice arts complex called “The Forks”, for some reason, and there’s a nice artsy neighbourhood nearby called “The Exchange District”, which might be confusing to you Yanks. I think they exchange arts and culture there, as opposed to the blood of foreign and domestic civilizations…)
- Canadian Donoghue leads Booker shortlist sales with Room
- Five cliches of author photos, most of which seem to involve a hand near the face (hey! Dionne Brand made the list!)
- Shania Twain to write (presumably) shortly-statured but smokin hot memoir
- Speaking of hot stuff, Zadie Smith to write books column for Harper’s
- John Milton: dirty limerick perv
- Kafka papers in somethingsomething-esque limbo
- Kindle will kill us all, via bus driver
- Seattle’s The Stranger spoofs the Franzen Time cover with a Tao Lin cover (you had to know something like this was coming)
- Is one of these the ever-elusive “future of the book“? (video)
- eBook sales through the roof!
