Writing for The Book Standard, the Book Babes have turned their attention to our fledgling effort and - despite a teensy bit of rocky history - they seem supportive of the venture.
Besides, I think this new idea could have real traction. By word of mouth and guerrilla marketing, it could be an important step toward winning the hearts and minds of the literati away from the mainstream media.
The article does touch on a point that's present in all of our minds ... Just as the Voice article referred to "entrepreneurs," we're a bit wary of the marketing component mentioned here. The LBC is not a marketing tool or ploy. It's an attempt to widen the conversation about serious fiction that has inevitable marketing ramifications. But, as we've said before, we're not sale or for hire; we're in no one's pocket; we're idiosyncratic and disagree; and we're here for one primary reason - to suggest that you Read This!
I wonder what the writer means of "serious" literature (which apparently also equates to "challenging")? If the LBC suggests something not appropriately serious, I demand a refund.
