Hi Everyone,
One of the most interesting stories of the week from the book publishing industry is that cell phone novels have taken off in Japan. And we predictthey'll soon be doing the same in the USA. Do note that these novels, though originating on cell phones, were then released in printed book form.
The good news is that if you're a religious writer, there's a new award being offered by HarperCollins division, Harper One.
The financial news is mixed this week, with a few heavyweights in the industry, Quebecor World Inc., and Meredith Corp showing signs of weakness. So be sure to read all the headlines this week for the full details.
