It’s Monday, so it’s time to (warily) open the doors to Eve’s Salmagundi Club – today, we’re looking at the latest incarnation of the e-book reader… this one’s in color… and a site that collects personal messages written in ink (or pen or marker or crayon or grape jelly) inside books. Then we bring you publishing’s latest buzz-word: you heard it here first, folks, and who knows? It might just swing that next book proposal of yours. And – news of the latest writing competition in the Colony.

Peter, you and Eve are cut off in your prime at 3 minutes 25 seconds on today's podcast.
Ah, don't know what happened first time but I got the whole 15 minutes on my second try.
Excellent show today, Peter and Eve. I like this new format. Thank you!
