Well this is interesting. The e-mail below dropped into my inbox the other day and I thought I would throw it up for people to see and have them visit the site too:
Hi i came across your blog. I am working on putting together a means of
communication for ottakars staff via www.myspace.com/ottakars.
My idea is to get an input on how other booksellers feel with a view of
using people power to have a say within waterstones.
Let me know if you are interested in helping me put this site together.
Check it out so far.
All the best.
Intrigued

Hi Eoin, thanks for this. I’m on myspace too (www.myspace.com/rogernmorris) as are many other writers and book-related people, including publishers and booksellers (and the odd agent). I added the ottakars group as my friend. It’s interesting, I think, that they are getting this going.
Actually I invited ‘ottakars’ to be my friend. I have to wait to see if they accept now.
Hey Roger,
I spied your icon on myspace (thought I had seen the name before somewhere) hope the book is going well!
Eoin
Thanks Eoin – are you on myspace? I’ll add you if you like. I’m trying to get a writers’ forum thing going there. So it’s not so much me shamelessly plugging my book as shooting the breeze with writerly types – or booky types for that matter.
