IT'S WORLD BOOK DAY

I just learned on Twitter (where I get most of my news) that it's World Book Day. I don't really know what this means, but I'm excited because today is also our monthly book buying day.  It's almost like I planned these events to coincide.

Here's the website for WORLD BOOK DAY. Looks like there's lots to navigate through for readers and writers. http://www.worldbookday.com/

If you are new to I WILL BUY BOOKS my goal is simple. We need to revitalize the book market. So take the pledge with me and help save an industry.

Raise your right hand:

I, (insert name), will BUY a new book on the 7th of the month. Paperback, hardcover, e-book, or audio, it doesn't matter. Purchased in a bookstore (independent or conglomerate), online, at the grocery store, in an airport, at a big box store, it doesn't matter. Fiction, nonfiction, it doesn't matter. And if I am a parent (which hopefully I know if I am) I will buy a book for my child as well.

Thank you for helping change the literary world. (Results not guaranteed.)

I will be visiting a bookstore this afternoon to purchase books for my 3 children. I'll let them pick. But I already know what I'm buying for me.

Ruta is amazing and I hope she will answer my questions later in the month.
