Friday is reading day in publishing: time to catch up on your people-watching skills, says Peter. In today’s Write Report, Donna recalls Beatrix Potter’s thoughts on Peter Rabbit’s proto-commercialisation – how do writers feel about the selling of their babies? And how the ‘net generation is changing our world – but for better or worse? In Eve’s Salmagundi Club, she tells how E-Bay is offering readers the chance to appear as a character in a new book – just one prize in a huge charity auction in aid of children’s literacy.
