Quote From Success: A Novel

Approaching the halfway mark in page count. But Part Two is much longer than Part One was and I might not finish that section today.

Homeland: Episode 1

Apparently Showtime offered up the pilot of this series on the Net and someone ripped it and passed it around.

Since the promo I saw months ago gripped me, I had to see this.

Spoilers ahead!

Tweet Of The Day: Print Publishing Is Sinking

Update, September 20, 2011: It turns out these figures are only for the UK. @sarahw actually bothered to ask, which I didn’t.

top-selling hardback this week sold less than 5,000 copies; no. 50 sold 247 copies. The phrase "bestseller" needs to be redefined.

— Jonny Geller (@JonnyGeller) September 14, 2011

I get more hits at this blog in one day just from legacy searches — meaning, old, not new, posts — than the number 50 “bestseller” sells in a week!

And I get a multiple of hits in a week at this blog than what the top hardback sells in a week!

So when publishing says they’re not interested in blogs like this one writing about books, you can see their suicidal attitude right there.
