links for 2008-12-12

  • "Reviewer John Ottinger is building a link compendium of science fiction and fantasy book reviewers. His invitation post treats the task like an viral Internet event, hopefully spreading word of the indexing far and wide. It's a great chance for genre reviewers around the Internet to connect."
  • '…many authors in non-fiction are using the internet as a means of turning the essentially incomplete, open-ended nature of their research into a positive. A good book blog (or – must we? – "blook") becomes a supplementary text, a place to explain, elucidate, apologise, dig deeper. Certainly, I've found that setting up a blog for my latest book has proved an ideal place to run full transcripts of interviews, or explore overlooked opportunities and new ideas that missed their departure slot, or simply to trade opinions, analysis and ephemera with readers.'
