I'll try to say what I mean again because this is something that kind of really frustrates me in rat-adj circles.

"Atomized Individualism" is one of those pop philosophy terms of art which changes meaning depending on who uses it, but I feel like I do actually have a pretty good handle on what rat-adj people tend to mean, and it's something like this:

In ye olden times, survival depended on a series of informal but coercive relationships, with examples being things like churches, families, and perhaps clan or feudal lord or what have you.

These systems were informal in the sense that the people at the top of the hierarchy had a large degree of discretion in how they applied the rules, and coercive in the sense that individual members policed each other and often used force to prevent people from leaving or contradicting the understood leaders.

Examples that have survived into the modern day might be, say, churches; The church might, for example, offer volunteer babysitting services, or operate a homeless shelter, but they might also pressure you, overtly or covertly, to profess the proper religion or else they will stop offering you those services and turn you out on your own.

Atomized individualism is the process by which this coercive structure is replaced with a better one; rather than being forced to kowtow to cults of personality in order to fulfill his basic needs, the modern, Atomized man instead relies on a combination of bureaucratized systems and a sort of bustling market of voluntary, low-control personal connections.

The welfare office, the thought goes, will not ask you to prove you are Christian to get welfare; your boss doesn't care how you act as long as the work gets done. And what social needs can't be met by work or government will be met by a large, competitive marketplace of ideas, fostering the growth of voluntary, low-control groups as replacements for the high-control groups that older societies would have forced you into contact with.

I'm not saying that the people who profess this idea are pollyannas; they are fully capable of recognizing that, say, in practice your boss may subtly or openly discriminate against people of the "wrong" religion; but he is more heavily enjoined from employing such discrimination than he would have been in, say, the 17th century.

The thing is, if we use that model of "atomized individualism" then Putnam presents strong evidence that atomized individualist practices declined precipitously from 1970 to 2000.

In fact, rather then an increase in atomized individualism in the rat-adj sense, he documented something that is almost, but not quite, the opposite.

Basically, nearly all forms of what we might broadly call socializing declined in that period of time.

What's worse, family and church, which are used as the quintessential high control group which social atomization protects us from, weathered the slump Putnam documents better then lower-control competitors. Unions, Social Clubs and Card Clubs collapsed precipitously during that time, while church membership remained much more stable.

Like, Church attendance might have declined in that period, but Union membership declined even more, leaving the religious bloc, for example, more powerful as a political force than the unions.

Instead of a world where people meet their social needs through a series of voluntary, low-control groups, the story is more that, from 1970-2000, Americans became more isolated, but less Atomized (In the sense described above). Rather than a plethora of voluntary associations arising to meet the social needs once met by religion and family, we see a world where people sort of resign themselves to not having their social needs met, while low-control groups that could meet those needs decline precipitously in membership and the high-control groups hang on by the skin of their teeth.

So while those high-control groups may have, in many ways, been reduced in power over that time period, the later in that period you get the less competition family or church have when it comes to actually providing for social needs.

If we value atomization in the sense I outlined above, I think it's worth looking at that and having a vocabulary to talk about it!

The internet will have changed things, and if anybody is interested in reviving the social club as a force in communities, it's rats, but disappointingly I'm not aware of a 2020 follow-up to Bowling Alone so it's very hard to say what the actual trends are from 2000-2020.

I guess I get frustrated when people say, "Social Atomization is good and we shouldn't go backwards" because for the first fifteen years of my life, there's very strong evidence that we already went substantially backwards.

“The Kamogawa Food Detectives” by Hisashi Kashiwai (and translated by Jesse Kirkwood)

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

***Thanks to NetGalley and G.P. Putnam’s Sons for the eARC copy of this book. My opinions are my own. This book came out on February 13th!***

“The Kamogawa Food Detectives” was originally published in Japan in 2013 and has just been translated into English for those of us in the United States.

Nagare Kamogawa and his daughter, Koishi, run the Kamogawa Diner, a small non-descript restaurant in Kyoto, Japan. They make delicious food, but their speciality is in their so-called food detecting skills. Customers come to them with a memory of a specific dish that they used to eat that they would like recreated. And the Kamogawas “investigate” the dish and recreate it. And the customer gets closure or an answer to a specific situation.

I liked this and didn’t like this all at the same time.

My likes are that the stories are sweet and cozy. The food sounds amazing. It’s the kind of book that you want to read curled up under a blanket on a rainy day. And also that it’s Japanese. I haven’t read a lot of Japanese authors and I am trying to diversify my reading.

My dislikes, I think, are mainly with the publishers and with how they presented this book. The book isn’t really one cohesive story. It’s six independent short stories. And they are VERY repetitive - to the point that I wanted to throw it against the wall when I started the last one and yet again, it was the same as the first five. I’m only slightly exaggerating here, but it was like a MadLibs story. It’s like there was a template and and the author just filled in the blanks with a new character and a new dish. But everything else about each story was the same - down to the description of the hallway or the exterior of the restaurant. How many times do I need to be told what the hallway looks like?

Maybe this is a translation problem. Maybe the translator made everything sound the same, I don’t know. But if this book was presented as a book of short stories, I may have enjoyed the experience better. I’ve been wondering if back when this was originally published, if the stories were published individually of each other in a monthly magazine or something and then they were collected in this volume, because that would also explain things. But the ARC that I read came with zero explanation.

Also, the way in which the stories are told is very different to way Americans tell stories. This is not a detective story in the way Americans think of a detective story. In this book, each short story is divided into two parts. In the first part, the customer comes to the restaurant and tells the duo about the dish they want recreated with some clues to its origin. The second part, the customer comes back two weeks later and the father tells the customer what he did to find the recipe and then he presents the dish. The customer gets closure. The end. We never get a middle investigative section. It’s very peculiar from a Western standpoint. I wonder and think it’s highly likely that I’m culturally missing something. Like I know that different cultures tell stories in different ways. And they have different tropes. And there are things that are intrinsic to their culture that I’m ignorant of. And that’s all completely fair and valid. Westernized culture isn’t and shouldn’t be considered the cultural standard. But I do think that IF that is the case here, then the publishers should have had an introduction to explain things.

Or have marketed this differently as a collection of short stories. Because there isn’t a lot intrinsically wrong with these stories outside of the repetition. I don’t not recommend it. It’s about 200 pages long, divided into 6 stories. You could maybe read one a night before bed. But I do think going into this book with the correct mind frame about what you’re getting into would help a lot. Because it is sweet and cozy and heartwarming and yummy.

i was rewaching dreams in a witch house and- first can i just say how bloody low hilda’s bar was...( and how cute lucy kept saying ‘geooorge’ ) seriously...cee is def an upgrade on her love life, cape and everything included ! also !!! can i just point out how she is not remotely impressed or surprised by seeing ( whom she believe to be ) mary barging into her dream ?!? lmao sure, hilda may have read her presence there as some sort of insecurity that her subconscious was exploiting ( the fear of rejection when a more traditionally beautiful woman enters in the picture, being seen as dull and boring and so virgin that she wouldn’t be able to capture a man’s attention if there was someone else in the room...) which, in a way, was of course but- the fact that she is not fazed at all, in fact it just looks like its not all weird, and neither finds it strange to dream of sabrina’s mortal teacher really does makes me wonder if that's a common thing or... also????? almost forgot !!! that story about waking up by the thames that she tells while she’s ‘as pissed as a faart!’ is just priceless lmao but on a last, more serious, note: the fact that the dream\nightmare date would’ve ended with him taking care of her, instead of her having to do things she was most definately not ready to do ( as nightmare!zelda had suggested ) prety much sums up hilda’s entire point of view on relationships ??? she wants gentleness and company, someone to rely on and who can rely on her - as much as she very much craves affection and relationships, she does in a much more romantic scope than most witches do.

#m; h. spellman \ isms #m; h. spellman \ hcs #nox rewatches stuff.#\#i mean...... theres so much to unpack #hilda's contatc with the exterior world aka outside her house #is rather small #even tho she does work at the farmers market (at least i hc that she does)#and does go to town a lot to run errants #her contact with other people is rather small??#no wonder she dreamed of the principal #it was probably either him or mr putnam or (worse) blackwood himself #alternatively i do not put it past her dreaming about mary before the events of s1 #except that with lilith taking control and turning the woman into a huntress #hilda's interest on her might have decreased - considering what she'd mostly admire on mary is her gentle disposition #whish is def not present when lilith still has control over her ofc #it is that same gentle hearted ways (plus the amount of mutual respect) that drives her to cee #she falls in love for him not only out of need (of love of connectio or whatever) but because he treats her how she always wanted to #he values her and is equally glad of her presence #thats all she's ever wanted - to love and be loved in return

The Deceptive Complexity of Simple Forms

Green Blue Red// Ellsworth Kelly// 1963

I think a common experience of the excitement of learning a new skill can sometimes manifest through an immediate desire for detail, intricacy and ambition in form. I think it probably happens to everyone- but to borrow Endi’s useful music metaphor, you have to learn Hot Cross Buns before you’re able to play Beethoven.

However!! As you start your on your papermaking journey I encourage you all to find comfort and rhythm within the process. Just like many people unwind after a long day by cooking a meal, there is a certain kind of pleasure to be found within the labor and practice of process oriented work.

Within that same vein, there’s opportunity within the challenge of working with simple forms as you first start out in papermaking.

Synecdoche: Adam Xinming Rich, Betty Stolpen, Christy Putnam, Claire Henry, Darryl Atwell, David Gariff, Eric Pullett, Esther Kwon, Heidi Hinish, Nathalie Ryan, Joseph Hudson, Julie Springer, Lara Moynagh, Laurie Peruyero, Linda Daniel, Lorryn Moore, Michelle Donnelly, Megan Liberty, I.D Aruede, Ruth Lizardi, Suzanne Akhavan Sarraf, Téa Chai Beer, Wendy Barbee, William Whitater, Yoav Silverstein// Byron Kim// 1991-present

Starting thinking about forms as code for meaning.

A red circle can be a reference to the Japanese Flag, a ball, an apple, a clown nose... And each of those examples can distill down into further meaning- an apple can be a reference to purity, teachers, health etc.

Text is another kind of simple form!

I Shop Therefore I am// Barbara Kruger// 1980

Barbara Kruger uses bold and simple text to create complex works that comment on American consumerism and the patriarchy.

In 1988, John Carpenter, the director best known for horror movies like Halloween (1978) and The Thing (1982) directed the movie They Live starring Roddy Piper. It’s a movie about a dystopian future where the American public has been brainwashed into complacency through our consumerism.

In the early 2000′s the street artist turned entrepreneur, Shepard Fairy borrowed Carpenter’s “Obey” from They Live and built a business from it that was eventually sold in places like Urban Outfitters.

Whew! Anyway.

Jenny Holzer is another wonderful example of an artist using text. Jenny Holzer is most well known for her “Truisms”, a series where she uses the strategies of mass marketing and slogans to create work to provoke the viewer to be more critical against the onslaught of marketing they encounter everyday.

Trusisms// Jenny Holzer// 1994

There are a lot of freedoms to be found within the constraints of simplicity! Feel free to reach out to me with your ideas if you would like feedback or to think through anything.

Viper Canyon - Chapter Two

“Then by the power vested in me by the Church of the Watcher, I now pronounce you husband and wife.”

December 1851

The sky was wonderfully blue and clear on that fine winter morning. Exciting things were happening in Viper Canyon and the entire town had arrived at the church bright and early, eager to get on with the celebration.

The church bell rang loudly over the canyon, filling the air with joyous sound.

“Thank you for joining us today for this joyous occasion under the loving eyes of The Watcher.”

Reverend Piggott’s voice was loud and clear through the church. He was a funny looking man to be sure, but his devotion to the Church of the Watcher was admirable and gained the respect of those in his congregation.

“We are here today to celebrate the union of these two souls – Verity Anne Langford and Joseph Benjamin Ebey – in holy matrimony.”

Beatrice and Winnie were delightfully surprised when Verity asked them to be her bridesmaids. ‘Oh, it would be such a shame to get married and not have you beautiful young ladies up at the altar with me…’ she reasoned. Privately, both girls thought no one in a hundred-mile radius could hold a candle to Verity’s beauty, but they were flattered all the same.

They would have all liked to wear new dresses for the ceremony but without a proper dressmaker in town it was impractical to attempt to get three fine gowns done in time.

Winnie and Beatrice were merely happy to have the chance to wear their best gowns from back home again – it reminded them of attending the parties and balls they were once used to.

Peter Langford, the boy who had traveled with his mother and the Hawkins family on their journey, had his blue eyes trained on the girls across the room.

He was brimming with boyish excitement, as well, honored to be a groomsman and even happier to be one alongside Beatrice and Winnie. There were no other girls their age in Viper Canyon, after all, and Peter was having a tough time trying to decide which of the two was the prettier sister – they were both attractive in different ways. He was hardly paying attention to his mother’s vows.

Mamma, better known to the town by her nickname, Dora, watched the ceremony with a small smile upon her face. Weddings never failed to remind her of her own – she was just a young girl when she married her Emmett, and she remembered how anxious she was on the very day. Quietly, she silenced a cough with a handkerchief, earning a sideways look from her husband.

Papa, as always, was steel-faced. He privately thought weddings a waste of time but was thankful that the event had distracted his daughters thoroughly enough that they’d managed to stop bickering for the past few weeks of preparation. It was also nice to have a day off from the mines to spend with his family – he could tell the hardships of their new life on the frontier were beginning to wear away at them.

Elijah had only ever been to a handful of weddings in his life. He had no taste for them. They seemed an extravagant waste of time and money for a piece of paper stating a couple was now legally wed. However, even he had to admit there was a certain magic to them.

It had been a long while since he’d seen everyone in town together. Several old faces had gone, and even more new ones had arrived to take their place. Even so, seeing everyone dressed in their best in the church filled him with a sense of kinship he hadn’t felt since moving to the west.

Even Viper Canyon’s resident business owners had turned out for the occasion.

Milton and Clarence Monroe, the father and son who ran the general store, were a reclusive duo. But even they were glad for the wedding – it had boosted their sales considerably, especially since everyone was bustling in for weeks, placing orders from the city, trying to find the best present for the newlyweds.

Timothy Putnam owned the Sidewinder Saloon on Main Street. He was a quiet man who always minded his manners and was happiest behind his bar. He’d come from the city, like most, and attending a wedding made him feel a bit like he was back at home.

Verity and Joseph had met in quite an unconventional fashion.

Joseph was a humble farmer who had moved to Viper Canyon some time ago, eager to start a simple life and tend to the land. He found, after starting his homestead, he was quite lonely and had no one to share his life with.

He’d heard of single men putting advertisements in the newspaper looking for wives to come from the east. At first, he was repulsed by the idea. It was almost like buying a wife. But the long nights with only his cows for company were beginning to take their toll on his mind. He thought he might go insane from loneliness.

Perhaps driven by that desperation, Joseph decided to put a humble advert in the paper. A few weeks later, he heard back from Verity, who enclosed a single photograph of herself for ‘full disclosure.’ He had never been taken aback by a woman’s beauty before. From her very first letter Joseph could tell she was a a good and gentle soul.

Through their correspondence, Joseph learned that Verity had been widowed after being disowned by her well-to-do family for marrying her husband, a man of the cloth. She had nowhere else to turn and was considering moving out west for a chance at a new life. Joseph had never felt more empathy for another soul than as he read that fateful letter. With that, they were quickly engaged, and the Langfords took their meager possessions with them across the trail.

“Joseph Benjamin Ebey, do you take Verity as your lawfully wedded wife, and hereby promise to love and cherish her as long as you both shall live, until death do you part?”

Joseph took a deep breath, unable to keep himself from smiling. “I do.”

“And Verity Anne Langford, do you take Joseph as your lawfully wedded husband, and hereby promise to love and cherish him as long as you both shall live, until death do you part?”

Verity felt a tear come to her eye. “I do.”

“Then by the power vested in me by the Church of the Watcher, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.”

As humble of a ceremony as it was, the room felt overwhelming joy at bearing witness to the first wedding – hopefully of many – to grace the chapel of Viper Canyon.

Mamma had taken the liberty of making a cake for Verity and Joseph. It was gorgeous, complete with all kinds of frosting decorations and orange blossoms made from marzipan.

After the newlyweds had cut into the cake, everyone helped clear the floor of pews to make room for the celebration. As unconventional as it was, there merely wasn’t room back at Joseph’s home to accommodate the entire town. Reverend Piggott was more than happy to allow the reception to take place in the church.

There was no better way to celebrate brand new nuptials than dancing. Reverend Piggott sat at the piano, plunking out cheerful dancing music as everyone filled the church with sounds of heavy heels and laughter.

Everyone except Emmett, Elijah, and Mr. Monroe.

“Ah, to be young again…” Mr. Monroe remarked wistfully. “If only these old bones weren’t so bothersome. I’d be having a jolly good time ‘round the piano with the rest of them. Say, you’re both two healthy young men – why aren’t either of you dancing?”

It had been a while since Papa had been called a ‘young man.’ He quietly chuckled to himself. “It’d be uneven if I joined,” he explained. “I’d rather let the younger crowd dance.”

Mr. Monroe nodded. “Ah, I suppose that’s true. How good of you, Emmett. What about you then, Elijah, what’s your excuse?”

Elijah cleared his throat. “I’m not much of a dancer.”

The old man clucked his tongue disapprovingly at Elijah. “What a shame that your youth is wasted on you in such a manner. I can’t fathom how you could watch something so wonderful and refuse to take part on account of having two left feet. You ought to feel ashamed.”

Mr. Monroe’s scolding made embarrassed heat crawl up the back of Elijah’s neck as he guiltily watched everyone dance from his spot in the corner. He felt like a little boy being chastised in school again.

They were having a jolly good time. Verity and Joseph were glowing with happiness as they danced with the rest of the group. It was clear for everyone to see that even though they’d gotten to know each other by exchanging letters from across the country, they made a fine match.

Elijah tried and failed to ignore Mr. Monroe’s withering glares, uncomfortably shifting positions each time the old man wandered into his line of sight.

Eventually, night fell, and Reverend Piggott indulged his congregation in slower music so they could all enjoy a waltz before returning home to the rabble of frontier life.

Verity and Joseph danced together, unable to take their eyes off each other, and Papa was happy to take Mamma’s hand for a spell. Beatrice had been the first to leap at the opportunity for a waltz with Peter, who obliged her with a cheeky smile.

The only girl left without a partner was Winnie. She was minding her business, politely waiting for Peter to ask her for a dance, when Beatrice had to swoop in and ask him herself – she had a special knack for ruining Winnie’s plans.

She’d heard stories from her friends back home about the disproportionate amount of men to women in the west. One girl had even told Winnie she could expect to see twenty-five or fifty men to one woman in the desert. Of course she hadn’t expected the ratio to be that unbalanced, but after being eyed up like fresh meat at the market from her corner of the church, it certainly felt that way.

She could feel the eyes of the single men in the room boring into her – all except Mr. Monroe, who was happiest watching everyone else enjoying themselves. She tried to melt into the walls of the church, but she couldn’t sink back any further. It wasn’t like the men in Viper Canyon weren’t universally kind and generous – she just didn’t consider herself to be interested in any of them. Her heart beat faster and faster as she heard heavy footsteps approach – but she was too afraid to look up through her eyelashes to see who was coming.

Elijah didn’t know what had gotten into him. Perhaps Mr. Monroe’s piercing looks and muttering under his breath about ‘wasted youth’ had burrowed under his skin a bit too deep. He wasn’t quite sure of what he was doing until he was suddenly bowing in front of Winnie, quietly asking her to dance.

Winnie looked at Elijah with wide eyes. “Why – of course, Elijah, I’d be happy to dance with you.”

It was an outcome she hadn’t seen coming. She was thankful and relieved it hadn’t been Clarence – the man carried with him a pervading odor akin to that of the pickles he sold in his general store.

Winnie and Elijah found a spot near the piano. Winnie wasn’t a particularly shy girl, but she found herself unable to meet his green eyes even though she could feel him looking down at her. His hands were large and rough around her own. He smelled like the dying embers of a campfire and hair oil. Winnie found it was a scent she quite enjoyed.

It had been a long time since Elijah had danced with a woman. The feeling was foreign but agreeable, nonetheless. His steps were a little rusty, but Winnie only smiled and shook her head, muttering that she didn’t mind when he stepped on the tips of her finest shoes. He was feeling a bit guilty for having asked Winnie to dance. She seemed to be quite accomplished as a dancer and he felt like he was holding her back from truly enjoying herself as she moved to avoid his clumsy footwork – Elijah would have gone as far as to suspect she was the one leading the waltz.

Winnie and Beatrice stayed behind to help Reverend Piggott restore the church to its usual layout. Elijah was on his way home when Mamma called from the Hawkins cart.

“Elijah,” her voice was buttery soft and sweet. “Elijah, dear. Do you have a moment?”

Suddenly, he felt uneasy. He noticed Emmett pretending to mind the road instead of meeting his eyes.

“Yes, ma’am. What can I do for you?”

Mamma smiled and looked over her shoulder, watching Winnie and Beatrice inside the church, before turning to look at Elijah again. He had never really noticed how much Mamma looked like Winnie before. It was a little strange.

“Well, Winterfest is coming quite soon, and I was wondering if you might want to come to our home for dinner. I make a fine roast and it’d be a shame not to share it with you. It’s the least we could do after all you’ve done for us. If you don’t mind my saying, it must get awfully lonesome in that house of yours all alone, especially during the holidays.”

“Oh. That’s mighty kind of you to offer, ma’am, but I would hate to impose.”

“Won’t you, please?” Mamma asked. Her voice was pleading. “The girls would love it, I know. Winnie and Bea do so look up to you.”

How could he say no to that? He had nothing but the upmost respect for Mamma, who had taken the hardships on the trail in stride even with her delicate health. Elijah sighed and put on his best face. “Of course, ma’am. I’d be happy to come over for dinner. Let me know if there’s anything you need before then.”

“Wonderful! We’ll seen you then, Elijah. Get home safely, now.”

He tipped his hat. “Emmett. Ma’am. I hope you do the same.”

The Hawkins sisters floated home on a cloud. Winnie and Beatrice got ready for bed wordlessly, each still with her mind occupied by thoughts of the wedding.

Every few moments Beatrice dreamily sighed to herself, clutching her hands over her chest dramatically.

“So…” Winnie began, once they were both in their nightgowns and ready for bed. “I saw you dancing with Peter.”

Beatrice was beaming from ear to ear. “Oh, Winnie, he’s the sweetest boy I’ve ever met. He was so busy reading those guidebooks on the trail I scarcely got the chance to properly acquaint myself with him, but tonight we did nothing but talk and dance. He’s just perfect – smart, and funny, and an absolute gentleman.”

Winnie smiled at her little sister. It was rare that they could go ten minutes without fighting. She was glad tonight was one of the rare times they could bond. She usually only got Beatrice in a good mood after she’d received a present or good news.

“I’m so glad you’ve found someone you’re sweet on, Bea. You two made quite the pair in the church tonight.”

After Winnie put out their lamp, she began to crawl under the covers, unable to avoid her sister’s gaze. Beatrice had a look on her face that was uncannily like that of a scheming cat.

“Well, I saw you dancing with our trail guide. Are you sweet on him, then?”

Winnie scoffed. “Elijah? Please. He’s almost ten years older than I am and getting to know him is like trying to acquaint oneself with a rock. Not to mention my toes are a sorry sight after he stomped all over them tonight. Blow out the candle and get to bed, Bea.”

Bea only snickered to herself as she extinguished the flame of their bedside candle, plunging the room into darkness.

The Evolution of Modern Book Publishing

A very good outline of publishing in the 20th Century and how it has changed and in many ways stayed the same. ~ eP

The Shatzkin Files

Book publishing lives in an environment shaped by larger forces and always has

Book publishing has always adapted to an environment shaped by larger forces. That hasn’t changed.

Andrew Carnegie provided a big lift early in the 20th century when he financed a lot of libraries, taking books and reading into every corner of the country. In the 1930s, publishers led by Putnam and Simon & Schuster made “returns” a part of the commercial equation between publishers and bookstores because the depression was making stores especially wary of taking on inventory.

After World War II, the mass-market paperback revolution was made possible by a network of magazine wholesalers (also called “IDs”, or “independent distributors”) who could push product out to hundreds of thousands of points of purchase.

In the 1960s, shopping center development boomed. The mall developers wanted“bankable” entities to sign up for their stores before the projects were built. Banks providing mortgage cash liked national brand names for that purpose better than unknown local entrepreneurs. That fact spawned the mall chains, Waldenbooks and B. Dalton, which each grew into the hundreds of stores by the 1970s. All those new stores opening created pipelines for publishers to fill that made the book business grow even faster.

Then in the late 1980s, Wall Street believed the destination superstore was a good bet and happily financed Borders (which bought Walden) and Barnes & Noble (which bought Dalton) to build out the 100,000+-title store model. This again created huge pipelines for publishers to fill and, unlike the situation when 25,000-title mall stores were proliferating, the orders to fill them went deep into publishers’ backlists.

All of this 20th century growth fit a similar model for publishers, leaning on booksellers to present their books to the public and to manage the inventory in an ever-expanding number of bookshops. So publishers continued to focus onbusiness-to-business marketing, honing their expertise at positioning their titles for reviewers, bookstore buyers, and library collection developers but only occasionally addressing the public, or any segment of any book’s consumer audience, directly. And they continued to focus their sales efforts on persuading stores to make commitments to their books. The ability to get “buys” from the booksellers really drove marketing and revenue.

Then in 1995, Amazon arrived and changed the game in many ways. And we can see in retrospect that the birth of Amazon heralded an even bigger change in the commercial context for publishers. Amazon’s arrival began an era which is now in full flower, where the environment for book publishers is largely influenced by major tech companies for which publishing is a hardly-noticed activity even though their impact on the world of publishing is profound.

That will be the Most readily useful International TV System - Al Jazeera, BBC, CNBC Earth, Or CNN Global

The BBC offer an RSS give with Firefox so you can always get probably the most updated news without examining their homepage. I believe it is of good use simply to see what's going on in the world since it's hard to get the TV on what you would like with household in the house. I do not actually follow politics that much but I normally have an opinion of all things. Frequently, I just visit the Sports or Engineering area because with most media, nothing essential generally happens. When was the last time YOU heard about chicken flu in popular news?

More about the site then... On the left you've a small image of the planet split up into different sections. Click on one of these simple sections to go to a focused site for that the main globe. There you will discover applicable media about this region ranging from information to sports and whatever else they could deem newsworthy. They supply pictures and sometimes movie of the big event which may be pretty cool to watch. Like the among the short-term dams at the Three Gorges Dam in China being supplied up.

That type of provides me onto my next point. The BBC includes a specific page to each country on this here planet. Because we are not discussing China, let us set their's there anyway. And voila. Today as you can see, they give you the country's national anthem, an occasion distinct their record, some related hyperlinks, features... Basically, anything else you can need if you are only performing some standard research on a country.bbc-daily-news.com

It was charged while the writing sensation of 2007 and just like the fireworks of the 4th September or the greatest spell of a scar faced wizard it took the headlines. Depends upon gasped at the final pages of Deathly Hallows and number you could claim these were disappointed. JK Rowling had undoubtedly used it again. People had tried to guess the plot but not a single blogger seemed to obtain everything right. Some were really near but the others missed the mark. One of many greatest writers of illusion fiction had performed the Houdini.

Within hours of the distribution of Deathly Hallows, BBC Media in the UK introduced on the web that they'd discovered the successor to Harry, Ron, Hermione and Voldermort. Now as we shut the pages of the final chapter on the Potter saga, one book that is not also published however is apparently quietly moving itself ahead as a contender for the concept of'Hotter than Potter.'

Since the distribution of Shadowmancer in 2004 in the USA and their rise to the top of the New York Times list, GP Taylor has tucked from the radar of the American book scene. Penguin Putnam printed two further publications, Wormwood got to the dizzy heights of #2 on the charts but Taylor's 3rd guide Tersias the Oracle tucked into shops without the campaign whatsoever. It absolutely was as though Putnam just put it on the market as cheaply as you are able to with no description why.

Many of his supporters did not even know the book was published. Adhering to a death risk, Taylor refused to tour in the USA and there have been rumors in the English press he was sad with the way his books had been launched in the US. All in all it served to keep Taylor beneath the radar. Starved of promotion, readers were hard pressed to get the sequels to Shadowmancer and with little action from Common Pictures on the script of the guide Taylor faded completely. He's on report in saying he believed he could be opportunity useless in Books of Question in New York at a signing.

It was only when evidence copies of his newest novel Mariah Mundi and The Midas Box begun to rotate on eBay that folks again began to take discover of the quiet British author. Potter fans hungry for another book to load the emptiness of Deathly Hallows started initially to rapidly blog concerning the subject before they had actually study it. News was sketchy. Taylor's own site had the book outlined as Mariah Mundi and the Ghost of the Prince Regent, but the name was transformed at the final second before the evidence copies were published.

Now it would seem that every one needs to get your hands on a evidence of the book. One New York dealer has already established countless enquires presently and shops in the UK are taking sophisticated purchases therefore customers may protected first editions. Buddyhollywood.com said, "the formula will there be, tried and tested. Young hero, woman sidekick, wicked villain, perilous plan and hurt in the tail ending. Nothing unusual. In the event that you read Tolkien, Lewis and Rowling the exact same units are in use. But like Harry Potter there is anything wonderful in regards to the boy, Mariah Mundi.

Mundi has missing his parents and it is not known if they are dead. He visited a boarding college in London, from where he was sent at age fifteen to perform in a large and strange hotel in the north of England. All fish out of water material with lots of scary goings to keep you turning the pages.

With lots of'whodunit'placed in (there is a monster at large and an odd field that has the energy to turn daily items to gold and a secret society called The Bureau of Antiquities) that guide includes the large history of CS Lewis and the plot of an Indiana Jones movie. Probably why Hollywood is queuing to have their hands on the rights for the book."

BBC News said on the day of the launch of Deathly Hallows that, "when Harry Potter weighs up his wizard's cloak, booksellers will undoubtedly be trying to GP Taylor's fall discharge, Mariah Mundi - The Midas Box, to help keep the bucks tills ringing."
