Excitment Fom Home Whilst in London We're two days into building our stand here at the London Book Fair. Things are going more smootly than we could have imagined (knock on wood). Everything's built and spotted, and all that's left it to unpack a TON of stuff. Surprising that we're not even unpacked after two ten hour days, but we have a lot of space here, including the New Title Showcase. However, while all that is all well and good, the really exciting news of our day (which is coming to an end soon, as it is approaching 6PM here), is that PubMatch got covered in Publishers Weekly!! You all remember PubMatch, don't you? Well we're expecting lots of big things from the site, and now that the news is officially released, we're hoping to help connect publishers, agents, authors and soon illustrators world wide! Keep checking the site for new members, and maybe your perfect match is there too! Cheers! ...04/17/2009 09:04 AM Post Comment | Read More> Does Time Fly or What? Wow! You know what I’m doing tomorrow? I’m going to London for The London Book Fair. If that doesn’t say time flies, I don’t know what does. I literally just unpacked from Bologna.
Not that I’m complaining—I love being busy, in part because it makes the time go by so quick, and it doesn’t feel like such a long time before fun and exciting things like The London Book Fair. Before you know it, it’ll be BEA, and I’ll be waiting in line to get Chuck Klosterman’s autograph. That’s right, the Klosterman will be there. Be sure to check out the BEA site and see who else is signing this year.
In the meantime, will I see you in London? I’ll be there with bells on, and I’ll be plenty busy there too. In fact, if you’re there, and consider yourself part of the young demographic, I definitely recommend checking out the Society of Young Publishers round table about international young publishing groups. I’ll be there giving some perspective from the US on the topic. Why? Because I’ve done my research, and I might have something related planned for YOU. Seriously.

The first full day is today, so if I'm lucky and can keep my eyes open, I'll try to update something about it later tonight or tomorrow. But in the meantime, BookBrunch, a daily publishing industry newsletter has a very short note about Americans and the Bologna Book Fair. Check it out here. ...03/31/2009 04:03 AM Post Comment | Read More> |
