- CJR: The Elephant in the Control Room
The elephant being Andrea Mitchell, wife of Alan Greenspan. On one hand, she had inside information. On the other, given the circumstances, can we trust her objectivity. - Another Wall Street Book! Viking Close to Deal With Times’ Andrew Ross Sorkin
By the time all these books are written, edited, and published, we’ll be on to the next crisis. - Is e-literature just one big anti-climax?
No. It’s just not what some people thought it would be. - Why don?t we review every local author?s book?
Jane Henderson of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch tries to answer the question. - Skills in the Digital Era part two
Nicholas Blake posts the talk he gave on preparing publishing for the future. Nice reading. - Tolkien heirs can’t seek punitive damages
So what we have here is a standard net participation deal that hasn’t paid out. Gee, what a surprise. - Borders Encounters Piper
The warrants for Borders are coming due, and since the bookseller can’t find a buyer (darn economy! if only someone could suspend his campaign and fix it), things are getting dicey.

You know a field (such as digital books, e-literature, whatever) is really starting to come into its own…when people start proclaiming it to be dead, or failed.
I don’t know if that’s something to be appended to Murphy’s Law, or what, but it does seem to be true.
