What’s the BookExpo, you ask? It’s only the most important conference in the publishing industry, like, ever! Yesterday I went to a panel discussion with Cory Doctorow from BoingBoing and Markos Moulitsas from DailyKos and some other guy from a blog called Whatever that I’ve never read but he was pretty funny so maybe I’ll start. The guy from Whatever said that his only rule for blogging is that he has to post at least one thing every day. That’s what I’m doing right now. I am posting my one item for the day.

The other interesting thing I learned is that a book only needs to sell 3,000 copies to be considered a success. Can you imagine? That’s how many people will see a popular movie over the course of a weekend in a single theater. When I chose to go into independent publishing, I really took a ride on the money train!

PS You should buy my book.
