Introducing guest blogger Jane Litte from Dear Author

by Pablo Defendini

So, as some of you may or may not know, Kate Rados and I participate on a weekly discussion webinar, the Digital Book World Roundtable, along with Laura Dawson and Bridget Warren, and moderated by Guy LeCharles González. The webcast happens every Thursday at 1PM EST. For this last one, both Laura and Bridget couldn’t make it, leaving the two more foul-mouthed, incendiary members (that would be Kate and yours effin’ truly, of course) of the round table without a tempering foil. Since Guy’s a smart dude, he quickly rounded up a cohort of special guest stars to temper Kate and me, including Heather McCormack of Library Journal, Brett Sandusky from Kaplan, and Jane Litte, of Dear Author and #romfail fame.

The show was, of course, a success—great discussion, high energy, and mad passion. During the back-and-forth emailing after the show, Jane mentioned the New Sleekness, and I casually mentioned that we’d love to have her as a guest blogger, if she ever wanted to. After consulting with Ami (“1000x yes!”), we extended the invite, and she said yes. So without further ado, we give you the formidable Jane Litte, a sleek, sleek publishing person if there ever was one.

Welcome to the Sleekness, Jane. Stick around for as long as you want.
