Next thing is to step up my book photography game. So many appealing photos of books online these days. I see this as a good thing for print

Even tho book photos are primarily found online, they showcase the beauty of PRINT books, and so end up promoting ink on paper held in hand.

I didn't think of instagram as a tool to promote books, particularly printed ones, when it first came out. But it has worked out that way.

Some of my favorite follows on Instagram are authors.

From what I can see - authors, readers, bloggers, photographers, bibliophiles, etc. are all making a wonderful go of it. Apparently print needed to be near death for us to truly appreciate the beauty of ink on paper. What a time to be alive!
