Links and Other Publishing Information of Note

This is a neat link I got from Vanessa Di Gregorio at Let the Words Flow. If you’re looking farther afield for authors to read and/or compare your work to, this Lit map is a God-send. Check it out and get your library card or Borders/Barnes&Nobel membership cards out. You’ll need them.

In other news: Scholastic has hired Duriya Aziz as vp, educational publishing, international group, reporting to Shane Armstrong, president, Scholastic international and growth markets. Aziz was at educational publisher Marshall Cavendish International (Singapore). Based in Singapore, she will be “responsible for building a publishing team to develop and adapt existing product for international markets, with a particular focus on the Southeast Asian region” along with directing the publishing operations at Scholastic India.

    That is a nifty link. I plugged in the name of the author I think my writing most closely resembles, and the most immediate names to pop up beside hers were all people I read for research (and pleasure). Very interesting.

    I had the same experience, plus one of the names that popped up was someone I was once compared to by an unbiased source. That was comforting!

    It gave several names I hadn't read yet, either, so I've got some catchup. 🙂

    The lit map is awesome. I'm going to keep plugging in names.

    And that's interesting info about Scholastic.
