From today’s PW Daily for Booksellers, some choice authors’ quotes from NACS-CAMEX:

Karen Joy Fowler (The Jane Austen Book Club):

“When I told my book club that I was writing about a book club, it seemed in response that they became more colorful and actually read the books and had interesting things to say–as if they were thinking this would look good on page. When we read Emma, none of them liked the book, and afterwards I became crosser and crosser and decided I could make up a better book club.”

Andrei Codrescu (Wakefield):

“Readers are strange.” (After recalling conversations with a woman who pretended to be an old girlfriend of his by using information gleaned from his memoirs.) (ed.’s note – Sittenfeld‘s wet dream?)

David Baldacci (Hour Game):

“So many lawyers are writing fiction. That’s what I did as a lawyer.”
