My program is not gezegde

 My program is not critical. It's almost like a billboard for the author's book. I've never presented it as being anything other than that. We get a dialogue going and we get to the point where it is a conversation. Mostly you hear the author and not Jim Foster. That's my goal.

 It's always important to bear in mind what a small tip of the iceberg any author is. When an author with some cachet gets behind the issue, the reasonable assumption is that the impact would be exponential and would get the conversation going.

 I'm a commercial writer, not an "author." Margaret Mitchell was an author. She wrote one book.
  Mickey Spillane

 I give the name of the book, a little about the story and a lot about the author. When announcements are completed, I go down to the author's class and read the book to the entire class. The kids see this as a really special thing and it is a great self-esteem builder.

 At least two senators that I heard with my own ears cited this as a reason why they decided to vote to not allow a bipartisan majority to reauthorize the Patriot Act. Well, as it turns out the author of this article turned in a book three months ago and the paper, The New York Times, failed to reveal that the urgent story was tied to a book release and its sale by its author.

 Hollywood, to hear some writers tell it, is the place where they take an author's steak tartare and make cheeseburger out of it. Upon seeing the film, they say, the author promptly cuts his throat, bleeding to death in a pool of money.

 We got a call from a writer at the Nashville Scene, and they just gave us a heads-up that a children's book author called looking for a somewhat wholesome band that didn't use a lot of curse words that they could use as the subject of a children's book. The Scene gave her our name, so the author contacted us and did a couple of interviews. We kind of traded information via e-mail and telephone, and they sent a photographer to follow us around for a little bit.

 (We had) the author of 'Holes,' Louis Sachar, go to the Staples Center and had 18,000 to 20,000 students go to Regal theaters throughout the country. He (presented) a writing seminar on what it's like to be a writer, what it's like to have your book made into a film.

 The event offers a unique opportunity for students to hear and be able to question the author of a book that has touched the lives of so many people.

 The way a book is read which is to say, the qualities a reader brings to a book can have as much to do with its worth as anything the author puts into it.
  Norman Cousins

 Book tours are almost designed to beat out of an author any affection he has for his book.

 is it any different to loaning a book to someone? There was a book in the US ( Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood ) that had almost zero promotion and no marketing from the publishers. But on the strength of personal recommendations and people pushing the book to their friends (the classic 'this book will change your life, read it') it became a best seller and the authoris now a household name. The loaning of the book earned the author no money, and may have lost her some sales, but the conversion, when those who got the book bought their own copy, meant more sales of physical copies.

 [FAVORITE BOOK/AUTHOR:] Pedagogy of the Oppressed ... It was about teaching people in Brazil how to read, write and liberate themselves. It was a great book.

 I think it's a stupid way to read a book, ... to say that because something happens to one person the author is trying to suggest that all people are like this. The novel is the art of the particular. And I'm talking about a particular person whose development from innocence to guilt, if you like, is his own particular narrative arc. The point is to make that coherent - not to read the book as some kind of simple allegory, but to read it as a story about a person.
  Salman Rushdie

 Great literature must spring from an upheaval in the author's soul. If that upheaval is not present then it must come from the works of any other author which happens to be handy and easily adapted.
  Robert Benchley
