The Boatman’s Books

Good morning, GalleyCat.

This is Jason Boog, the newest reporter on this excellent blog. For the last three years I’ve curated a little site called The Publishing Spot, and it is a real honor to join the MediaBistro family.

I’ve been a freelance journalist in New York City since 2003, writing for The Believer, Peace Corps Writers, and The Revealer. You can read more at my personal website.

At GalleyCat, I’ll be chasing book news and shooting video stories. If you have any tips, ideas, or need a rowboat captain, email me.

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
