More catching up

I told you there was a lot going on.  Yes, enough to merit two posts in one day!

The Knight Agency’s Say Yes to the Cover poll opened yesterday and runs to Thursday, April 26th at 11:59am ET. Help choose a new cover for Lauren Baratz-Logsted’s THE BRO-MAGNET and enter to win e-books by leaving a comment on the site about the silliest thing you’ve ever done to impress a guy or girl.  Personally, I plead the fifth.

Next, there are a few great posts I want to draw attention to:

Book Riot on the lack of a Pulitzer Prize this year for fiction

Charles Stross’s wonderful and insightful summary of Amazon’s business strategy, which I think leads right into the NY Times piece…

“Book Publishing’s Real Nemesis” about DOJ’s misplaced aim

And now, back to work.  These editorial notes won’t write themselves (more’s the pity).
