Google Notebook Updates & A Dash of Hope
By Therese Walsh | November 28, 2007 |
Did you hear the one about writer Catherine O’Flynn? Her novel was rejected fifteen times by publishers before finding a home, and now she’s been short listed for one of the UK’s most prestigious literary awards, the Costa Book Awards. Perseverance, passion and belief. Just sayin’…
What’s going on with the Kindle and how has it affected the price of Amazon’s paperbacks? Who’s won this year’s Bad Sex Award? What’s happening with the strike negotiations? What makes Stephen King afraid? What’s the latest on The Golden Compass and its author Philip Pullman? Where can you find a new and impressive online visual dictionary? Check out all the latest books and business news at Writer Unboxed’s Google Notebook HERE.
Two more days before we’ll post part one of the Donald Maass interview. Kath and I can hardly believe that this one will mark the big 5-0 for us–or that we’re closing in on our two year blogversary. Time really does have wings.
Write on, all!
