Barren Island Books – Susan Spann

20/7/2014

0 Comments

 
Welcome to Barren Island Books, the author interview series that’s in no way related to a popular music-based radio programme. You know the rules by now: my guests are exiled to a remote island with only five books for company, selected from the categories I give them. It’s up to them to make sure they choose wisely, because they’re going to be stuck with those books for a long, long time …

My interviewee this week is Susan Spann, author of The Shinobi Mysteries – the second of which, Blade of the Samurai, has just been released. When she’s not being banished to a desert island, Susan can be found at www.susanspann.com.

A question of trust? One reader's thoughts on the noble art of bookselling

6/7/2014

8 Comments

 
Here's a question for you: what makes you decide to buy a particular book? For me as a reader, it could be one or more of a number of factors:

1. I’ve heard good things about it from someone I trust, be that a review site or a friend.

2. I’ve interacted with the author in some way that didn’t involve them trying to sell me their book.

3. It’s by an author I know I like, and/or it’s been released by a publisher whose other books I’ve enjoyed.

4. It’s on sale so I figure it’s worth giving it a shot.

5. I needed something to read in a hurry and this one caught my eye in the bookstore (physical or virtual).
