Publishing Gossip (as promised)

Borders as we know it may be doomed. Or not. Apparently their stock went belly-up, they've had to look for major immediate cash and are looking for a longtime buyer. Barnes & Noble was rumored to be interested, but that rumor has been since laughed at and so a giant conglomerate of bookstores is not in the works. Apparently. Just google "Borders" and something juicy will come up.

J. K. Rowling continues in her legislation against a promised Harry Potter Lexicon not written by herself. Mugglenet.com continues to cover the story.

All of this proves that one MUST be subscribed to Publisher's Lunch. The free version is-- guess what-- free! Sign up at publishersmarketplace.com and get another daily burst of publishing gossip. News. Whatever.
