Happy Earth Day! And a link.

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

We here at rachelledelaney.com (“Liberté, fraternité, creme brulée!”) are pleased to wish you a happy Earth Day. We hope you will tell that special tree how much it means to you, and give it a well-deserved hug. Go on. Do it. There now. Didn’t that feel good?

We are also pleased to give you the article of the day, which once again goes to Mr. Russell Smith of the Globe and Mail, who writes today about the BIG book. This, according to Mr Smith, is what all publishers are looking for. A book about big issues, like black presidents, Vatican scandals, environmental degradation, and the Holocaust. We here at rachelledelaney.com are kicking ourselves for not thinking of the black pope idea first. Damn.

Enjoy the article! Preferably as you picnic under your favourite tree. Organic style.

E-books, e-books everywhere

Thursday, March 25th, 2010

Tired of hearing about how e-books are taking over the world? Perhaps you’d rather curl up in bed with your favourite creased pages, pull the covers over your head and forget about the whole thing?

Well you’ve come to the wrong place. Cause we here at rachelledelaney.com (“Saving the world, one bowl of cereal at a time”) are giving the prestigious Article of the Day Award (tum ta ta TUM!) to the Globe and Mail’s Russell Smith, who writes today, “Let’s ditch the fuddy-duddy stereotype.” A very good read about how publishers and writers alike are navigating this new e-landscape, and how we’ve all accepted that there’s no escaping the Kindle.

Psst… You with the covers over your head… That means you too.
