Thursday Quick Bits

Who sells the most ebook titles? The romance genre and well, anything racy in general, so says the latest data in the New York Times. Why? Because readers don't have to be seen with embarrassing book covers. Interesting article. I could learn a lesson from this.

Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O'Malley's blog has a FAQ about his working process that sounds so like my routine.

Are you a Lucy Knisley fan? You should be. She's a wonderfully creative cartoonist. I love checking her online journal from time to time.

Follow me on Facebook. I post photos and sketches there, plus daily things that come up, like changes in the book, shipping or travel dates.

I'm really looking forward to the Thor movie. Here's a peek.

In the market for the world's best camera under $900? Being visually oriented and a habitual photo taker, I think about such things. Even as a boy I knew the great photos were taken with a Leica. Warhol an carried an M6 everywhere, but nobody can afford an M6. What kind of 12 year old knows that? Weird boys like me, I guess. Now Leica finally has a point and shoot and it costs no more than a loaded iPad.

I posted this in July, but still no answers. What the hell is this? You tell me. It stopped air traffic at an airport in China for awhile. Officials said it was military and they would explain more a few days later, but I never heard another word about it, and bloggers who reported it were required to remove their posts, apologize, and ask all readers to erase downloads. Just stating the obvious here: secret military craft don't fly over cities and hover near public airports. And, in the age of Wikileaks, there is no such thing as secret military aircraft in the skies any more. You can't hide that stuff in a world where every person has a camera and internet access. So… any suggestions?
