Caught up w/ an old friend who said his memoir is now an audiobook. He only found out when the narrator reached out to ask how to pronounce his name. He gets $0 from audiobook sale. His publisher is a university press, so he trusted it was a fair contract. Read those contracts!

Fireplace.

[Little, Brown and Co @littlebrown]

The ultimate dilemma: would your rather read sprawled out on a beach or wrapped up near the fireplace?

[Literary Lass @aliterarylass]

It really is.
