As a bookseller, the printed promotional material that publishers send out can be a bit overwhelming to sift through and of course, they are usually at work when there’s just no time to look at it all. Buyers have more of an advantage because they see the reps, but the seller on the floor often doesn’t have that chance. We wind up constantly paging the poor buyer about books customers are looking for because they don’t remember the title/author and only recall the content. Podcasts and videos “to go” make it easier to catch up and accessible to all.

I’ll be sure to pass the word on to my co-workers about this blog/idea. As trav said, thanks for taking the time to put this together. You’ve made my job a little easier!

This is such a cool idea! Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Lots of good videos that I never would have dug up on my own.

Mel,
Yes, there is a sequel! It should be out in summer 09, I think. Stieg Larsson wrote 3 books before he died, but submitted them all at once. So there are actually 2 more books to look forward to. I have the manuscript of the 2nd book,but haven’t gotten a chance to read it yet. I’ll report back when I do.

Thanks!!
Ann

I just finished Girl w/Dragon Tatt on vacation and can’t help but wonder if there would have been a sequel. It definitely stays with you…
I’ll be linking up the interview on your blog later this week
