A Few Notes

JC: A few things to get the week rolling: First, be sure to check out two great posts over at jewcy.com. First is the Justin Taylor interview. You’ll remember JR’s enthusiastic review of Taylor’s new story collection Everything Here Is The Best Thing Ever from last week. While you’re there take a look at the Sam Lipsyte piece as well.

Also, after the jump, a couple of video clips worth a look
Via Critical Mass, here’s a fine presentation on social media by Columbia professor Sree Sreenivasan at a NBCC meeting. Ostensibly for book critics, a lot of writers and publishers could learn from it as well.

Also, if you haven’t seen the creative “End of Publishing” video originally created by DK UK for sales conference, you should. Clever and optimistic.
