What I Read... |
Dream. Believe. Create. Live. Read. The life and times of a sweet bookworm. |
Most of us make it through to the other side of grief. We will never be returned to who we were before — we are changed, perhaps even maimed — and yet we are still here, whether we want to be or not.
The morning we wake up and notice once again the spreading pink sky of sunrise or look forward to the deepening blue at dusk is proof of our resilience. Art helps us to understand what life offers, both in the fullness of our present sorrow and in the promise of a morning after.

Bestselling author, legendary chef and TV star Anthony Bourdain will have his own imprint at Ecco, acquiring three to five titles a year. Daniel Halpern, Ecco’s president and publisher, noted that the paperback edition of Kitchen Confidential “was one of the first books we published at Ecco as an imprint of HarperCollins a decade ago. As an informal (over the table) advisor to me during this time, his intuition has been unerring–suggesting such authors as Ferran Adria and Fergus Henderson. Now he’s becoming one of us, sort of.”
Bourdain said he is looking forward to working with Halpern: “Like me, he’s passionate about words, about food, about the broad range of experiences out there–and I know from my own experience, that he’s crazy enough to take a chance on authors whom others have either overlooked or avoided.”

Great interview in the latest issue of Poets & Writers about three very different journeys to publication by three extremely talented writers (self-published, small press, and major house).
(I might be mentioned in there…along with my publicity company, Kelley & Hall).
