Taking a Rest
The Publishing Spot is taking an indefinite vacation.

I just started blogging for the good folks at GalleyCat. And, as always, my personal site is loaded with content. Stop by both places and say hello!

It's been three years of non-stop content, and I just want to say thank you to everyone who kept this little writing community going. Until we return, the archives and comments are still open, so feel free to explore. Here is some of my favorite content from the past three years...

Up top, you have my video coverage of the 2007 National Book Awards. We'll be back there again this year.

Check out how Janice Erlbaum literally walked us through her memoir.

Screenwriter Allen Rucker taught us about writing for television, movies and memoirs.

Novelist DeLauné Michel showed us how acting can help your writing.

Richard Grayson explained how he used Print-On-Demand Publishing to save his novels.

Sam Douglas gave us Real Advice from a Real Fiction Editor.

Robert Boynton taught us How To Survive as a Freelance Writer.

Then watch Best Literary Friends Forever, a video featuring our special journalist guests, Kate Torgovnick and Joie Jager-Hyman.

Then there's journalist Jeff Gordinier explaining how he built his magazine writing career and wrote a book.

Don't forget when Jeffrey Yamaguchi Explained How To Write Your Book At The Dayjob.

And remember how Felicia Sullivan talked about her memoir.

Or when Novelist Ed Park showed us how to write office satire and really, really long sentences.

And Susan Henderson taught us How To Beat Writer's Block.

Then Jeff Gordinier Showed You How To Promote Your Book.

And finally, Tony D'Souza taught us The Fine Art of the Action Scene

Thanks so much for all your great content. You're my go-to site for continuous writing inspiration (I'm in Madison, WI), and I'll miss your voice and the access to other writing voices you provide. And if you have any favorite sites that YOU go to that may be similar in content to the Publishing Spot, I'd love to know. Thanks again and best of luck to you in all your writing endeavors!

Congratulations ... I have really been enjoying this blog, I guess I will just look for your posts over at mediabistro (I think it's a good fit) ^_^!

Jason, The Publishing Spot is a fantastic site, really appreciate what you've built up here, all the insights, tips, interviews and more. Congratulations on the new Galleycat gig, looking forward to seeing the continuation of your excellent work over there.

Thanks to everybody who stopped by or wrote in the last few days. It's truly an honor to have made so many friends who like books--on the Internet and in real life.

Sincerely,
Jason
