    Ah, beloved Thievery Corporation. I really like their stuff; it's at once so mellow and progressive/funky. Contradictory, if you will. A lot like the policies of one centre-left pro-European politician of British extraction. I wonder, if there were a real life Thievery Corporation, what would...

    The economics of self publishing e-books

    What Lovecraftian says. Editors are crucial. As is a sold knowledge of the genre you intend to write in, and a love of reading in general, not to mention shit-hot grammar and spelling - good editor or not.

    I just spilled red wine all over my grey cashmere jumper, white shirt underneath it, and upon a hand-made cream-coloured pillow cover. Wife wasn't too impressed. Thus I am now: DJ Hype - Bad man - YouTube

    July 2012 BOTM - Non-fiction

    Among the Gently Mad - Nicholas Basbanes I think this is a perfect, and quite short read, for this forum. Basbanes writes books about books - specifically the book culture, book collecting and the bibliophile. His worthy (and quite weighty) tome, A Gentle Madness detailed the culture and life...

    That tune is nice, but it doesn't accompany its title very well. I would've thought something more light and dreamy. Quite heavy, non? I used to build large towns out of my Lego, over which I could rule in a democratically elected fashion and left-of-centre-leaning manner. Just like Tony...

    Hello, every book lover! Or in my language Laba diena :)

    Hey Dovile. Welcome to BAR. I am a big fan of horror, supernatural and weird fiction myself, though I also enjoy reading a good mystery (preferably Agatha Christie, but my tastes vary from time to time).

    Anyone else heavy reader of tech manuals - IT or otherwise...

    So, I've found myself in a position the last week or so where I'm reading few a couple of heavy tomes in the field of IT (web development specifically). I find that when I am reading these texts that I don't read as much fiction as I'd like. It's like I either feel guilty reading fictional...

    mystery (kellerman) - who killed the woman?

    This reminds me of an old flatmate of mine who used to watch murder mystery shows with a notepad and pen so he could make notes as to who the killer might be :-)

    mystery (kellerman) - who killed the woman?

    Well, a suggestion might be to go to a site that has a decent online review of the book, and then contact the reviewer to ask for more information. I Googled the book and came up with: The Official Bev Vincent web site which seemed a semi-decent review. There's a contact link on the left there...
