I’m trying something new: using a Google Notebook to capture tantalizing bits of business & book news I think you’ll appreciate. The public web addy for this notebook is HERE. Let me know if you have problems accessing, etc… and what you think about the system. I think it’ll make updating easier.
Upcoming interviews with: fellow blogger and author of the soon-to-be-released resource, Get Known Before the Book Deal, the original Writer Mama, Christina Katz; author of the Max Mingus thrillers Nick Stone; author of touch-of-magic novels Garden Spells and The Sugar Queen, Sarah Addison Allen; agent and author of A Dash of Style, Noah Lukeman; debut YA author A.S. King on her modern-day pirate tale, The Dust of 100 Dogs; metafiction novelist Ara 13 on his award-winning novel Drawers and Booths.
I use Google Notebook all the time. It’s perfect for writers, because it’s so easy to grab snippets from the web or fire off a sentence or two to remind yourself later.
Before Google Notebook I used Yahoo Notepad, but unfortunately you have to login, go into your Yahoo mail, find Notepad, load it up. It’s several steps removed whereas with the Google Notebook firefox plugin, you can open it with a single click.
Google wins.
Lordy, Maw, what will them young’uns think of next!
This is very cool, Therese. One stop shopping, gotta love it.
