Hello everyone! Tonight I begin using a new format that will help me keep the links I send you more up-to-date. With Twitter Blackbird Pie I can send you a digest at the end of the workday that is clickable! (Try it! Click on one of the colored links — even the hashtags — and you’ll be whisked away to the link!)
It’s just like the old nursery rhyme…
Sing a song of sixpence a pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened the birds began to sing,
Do you remember?

The book blogs will continue to post (and be sent via email) at 1am, but this “digest” blog will now be sent to you after 5pm. This means any “scoops” will be sent to you the day they occur! (Who knew that Google was indexing your Facebook comments? Yikes!)

Booktalk: Doug Solomon was a normal kid. But that ended once he became wanted for murder. Now he’s being hunted by VIRUS–an evil organization bent on world domination.
Snippet:
Would you do me a favor and leave me a comment saying how you found this blog? You probably searched for my name, except this website isn’t even in the top three thousand search results for “Doug Solomon.”
Maybe that’s why you’re here. You think I killed my aunt. You think I’m a fugitive from justice, a homicidal maniac, or a domestic terrorist.
A thirteen-year-old driven crazy by video games.

Snippet:
My mother waits for the kitchen door to slam shut and then sits down. She hides her face in her hands. “She’s not just a nosy neighbor; she can have you sent away.”
“I’m sure she can’t–” my father starts, but my mother interrupts him.
“Yes, she can and they’re doing it already.”
