Friday, December 12, 2008. Ok, you may have noticed that there have been no posts for over a month. EEK. Sorry. People have been laid off, and those of us still working have been a bit slammed. So, in the new year, we'll try to be back to posting on a semi-regular basis. In the meantime, I don't know. Check out the peeps on our blog roll. Links to this post. Labels: sorry my bad.

Wednesday, July 30, 2008. This could well be the nerdiest day at Slunch ever but we can we do. Today the new Harry Potter trailer was unleashed and if you haven’t seen it yet then I’m sorry what are you doing? And did we even see Hermione – that’s odd And WTF – Where was Alan Rickman? There are some things I feel strongly about and Alan Rickman is one them. So what did you all think? Let’s hear it – I’ll check back after I’ve watched the trailer a couple more times. Links to this post. It remains to be s...

Saturday, August 9, 2008. Run's House: A Show Devoted to Gotham Books. So I finally got around to watching the “Run’s House” episode that features special guest appearances by Penguin peeps. I had read that Gotham publisher Bill Shinker was going to appear, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that some of the audio people got screen time as well. Gotham Books, of course. Hmm…. Links to this post. Monday, August 4, 2008. What would Padma say? On him for writing. Awesome book, btw). Instead of ignoring t...

Friday, September 5, 2008. Now I can't help thinking B.F.G. was code for something naughty. I just got this link in my inbox, and had to repost for y'all. Apparently, Roald Dahl (ya know, the guy that brought us. James and The Giant Beach. And the Willy Wonka books) was apparently a SPY! And not just your run of the mill boring James Bond spy - A SEX SPY. Dahl] begged his superiors to take him off the assignment, only to be told to get back into the bedroom. Links to this post.

Thursday, September 18, 2008. On a slightly lighter note. Any loyal LOST fan knows that there have been consistent literary references throughout the series, from. The Turn of the Screw. A lot of these hints went over my head, but hey, that's what Doc Jensen. Are for. But now, those crafty LOST writers have created the LOST Book Club. Now, what are the odds that I can actually read thru all of these before the show returns next year? Are You Out There, God? It's Me, Margaret. Links to this post. Book, I ...

slunch: W: The Memoir?
http://slunch.blogspot.com/2008/11/w-memoir.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2008. The AP has an article about the possibility of a Bush memoir. And what the best strategy for it would be. The consensus seems to be that he should wait. You know, until we all stop hating him quite so much. Because apparently, after a few years, we'll all forget what a horrifically bad prez he actually was. I think the only way I would read it would be if he focused on his early days.Bush getting wasted and doing stupid things? Monday, June 10, 2013 at 11:16:00 AM EDT. Litera...

Tuesday, September 30, 2008. News came earlier today that Olsson's Dupont Circle had unexpectedly closed. But now, apparently, the company has announced that all stores are closed for good. I think Politics and Prose just got a lot harder to book. Links to this post. Labels: book store closings. No word yet on how the rest of the publicity/marketing team will be split. But perhaps this will finally slow down that ever-spinning revolving door. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

slunch: RIP: Michael Crichton
http://slunch.blogspot.com/2008/11/rip-michael-crichton.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2008. Some sad news on this otherwise extremely happy day (for all us democrats, at least). Michael Crichton passed away. Yesterday, apparently after a bout with cancer. I have to confess, I have never actually read anything by him (I know, I know), but I've seen jurassic park many a time, and damn, I do love me some ER. Also, fun fact, Crichton was good friends with artist Jasper Johns, who's stuff is amazing, so that makes him even cooler in my book. RIP. E notes book blog.

Wednesday, October 22, 2008. Jackie's gonna regret that. Ah, Jackie Levin. Who hasn't placed constant emails, begging for placement on the Today Show for one of your authors? Yes, I know that you will never do anything with my little debut novelist, but hey, it's nice to try, right? But, Jackie, I think you may of made an error in your recent interview.
