Publishing Spotted: Meet McCarthy, AP Applications, and Roth Reward

In the year's strangest literary twist, Oprah managed to get the reclusive Cormac McCarthy to go on her show and discuss his new novel.

From the noir-inspired No Country for Old Men to the Biblical Blood Meridian, this writer has burned his writing in my brain forever. I was at work when Oprah interviewed him, but Ed Park live-blogged the whole thing.

Journerdism reports on a crazy new development in the difficult relationship between print outlets and online communities. The AP is working hard with a web company to build software to track their content--anywhere web writers reprint it.

Bookdwarf gets hooked up. I'm re-reading Zuckerman Bound this summer, and I was very jealous to read this: "You want to look your best when you meet Philip Roth. That’s right, Philip Roth. I was lucky enough to be part of a small group of about 40 people at a party celebrating his upcoming Fall Book Exit Ghost. We met at Cafe Gray in the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle."
