BookShorts VIDEO: The Fighter Book & Movie Launch

Watch the video

Hey, we should do this more often! A much hyped event, and for good reason. In attendance -- the ususal suspects from literary circles, AND a great many regular folk, namely boxing fans, that may or may not pick up a book on a regular basis. BookShorts Director Mark Hesselink was on hand to watch another performance, harkening to the movie The Fighter, based on Craig's book, which will launch online and on the circuit with Craig and his book.

WATCH THE UPCOMING EPISODE OF BOOKSHORTS "MOVING STORIES" featuring Mark's film, premiering on CLT November 26, and BookTelevision November 30, 2006.

A huge CONGRATS to the Penguin posse, and particularly to Craig, Stephen and David that have proven their dedication to the job. Overall, very rewarding indeed, for Craig and for those of us who support the outreach to new readers no matter how we get them!

Thanks Myers, I guess there *is* such a thing as "danger pay" in publishing!
