John Grisham’s Thoughts on the Online Book War & EBooks

John Grisham’s Thoughts on the Online Book War & EBooks

By Shannon Yarbrough on November 22, 2009

For those who might have missed it, best selling author John Grisham was on the Today show this morning to plug his new book, Ford County, but also had a thing or two to say about the recent web war with book pricing that’s been taking place amongst Amazon, Wal~Mart, B&N, and Target. He believes printed books are an endangered species and that the surge in popularity of EBooks isn’t helping.

Welcome to July!

Normally, I would have posted this link in the POD Diary section since I came across it while working on marketing for my own book, but it was just too good not to post here on the main page.

Check out this newspage.com link which is a small directory for Independent Bookstores in the U.S. and Canada.
