Just to underscore the revolution underway in publishing, take notice of the upcoming eBook Summit. The fact that this conference is organized by MediaBistro itself is instructive. MediaBistro is one of the most important communities of writers in the US, with a real finger on the pulse of the literary world. The conference will draw together many of the innovative minds trying to figure out the future of publishing.
Take a glance at the teaser video over in our sidebar VIDEO FOR WRITERS, with interviews from attendees at the recent Summit preview party. From this video, I learned for the first time about ElectricLiterature. Here’s its stated mission:
Electric Literature’s mission is to use new media and innovative distribution to return the short story to a place of prominence in popular culture.
WOW! And one of its projects is to develop musical animations of a single-sentence from one of its authors works, like the one in our video sidebar.
This is just one group that will be represented at the Summit. There will certainly be others with equally innovative projects to discuss.
NOTE: If any of our readers plan to attend, please let me know. Maybe we can arrange for you to do a live blog from the event!
