Buy a book, save the world!

There has been a lot of doom and gloom in the publishing industry recently (and, well, the rest of the world too). Every agent/editor/publisher has blogged about it recently, so I am not going to say any more. (I have, however, shared a fair number of those blog entries here)

But! There is something we can do. Buy more books!

With the holiday season upon us, we are all thinking of the perfect gifts to buy, so consider buying books for all your loved ones.

After all, books do not expire. Nor do they bite, die or cause weight gain. They do not require batteries or food. A book is a friend for life, and will always be there when you need it.

Buy a book, save the world!
