Comments
Sherry Bosley (aka Brown Eyed Girl): "Toepicks, Cadaver Dogs and Sports With No Balls"
Kim Brittingham: "Read My Hips"
Jason Giecek (aka Tink): "Shame of the Father"
PJ White (aka Big Fat Trauma Queen): "The Dumpster's Daughter"
Also, Caitlin Kelly has a newer book, "Malled"
I've written about Amy's and Matt's books, Matt has written about Con's, and Alysa has written about Ingrid Ricks' book. All highly recommended.
Hayley Rose, "I Know Why They Call a Shell a Shell: Tales of Love Lost at Sea." Pub. date: Feb. 14, 2012.
Thanks for posting this. It's inspiring!
While I don't have a book by me published this year, two books that include my work will be published in 2012.
The essay called “Try Holding Your Pencil Like This” will be published in a scholarly Brit journal called “Visual Inquiry: Learning and Teaching Art” available January 2012.
ABSTRACT (I like how they spell all Britty)
Artists train the next generation of artists. To the uninitiated, this system might seem mysterious, even bizarre. Communities of idiosyncratic creative individuals pass on a lineage that stretches back to some French caves, further perhaps. A life spent as an artist is remarkable enough. A life spent as artist and as an educator of
future artists is extraordinary. This essay is a tender reflection of the joy and honour of being one link in the chain.

The other is a gallery style book about artists books,“1000 Artist Books”, by Sandra Salamony and consulting editors Peter and Donna Thomas, to be published by Rockport Publishers/Quarry Press in July 2012. Book artists from Australia, New Zealand, South America, South Africa, Japan, the UK, Europe, and the United States are represented. Just me and 997 other artists! Two are former students though, so I'm proudest of that.

cool published authors blogging on open salon
I had no idea.
It is lovely of you to do this.
thank you so much
rated with love
Thanks for the list! How cool of you to do this!
The guy is older than Moses.
How to find time? No memoirs for us all?
I remember a author being interviewed say to the question `
`
How long did it take you to write this book?
The author was elderly. "It took ninety years."
`
I'll have to get into a reading mood. Amazing.
Thanks for doing this. I gotta learn to spiels;
use better grammar, and stop commenting.
& all the extra links in comments ~ it grows & grows.
@ Fernsy & Larry : O, you laugh.
Try changing your 912 year-old mother's diaper & get back to me.
Mr. Gamble, oh, to read Arabella, although I'm not sure what it's about. The cover entranced me. I imaginarily sailed the seven seas so often as a child, when I wasn't the not-so-imaginary sylkie who found her skin and quickly jumped in the sea and frolicked in the waves, happy to be home again...
Again trilogy, how fun to see what a broad spectrum we have here on OS, I'm thrilled you've compiled this list and more are coming in. Keep re-posting so more can find! : )
I wonder if there is a way that we could further feature these...maybe a review club like the fiction club?
Thanks for posting the information.
Justthinking- He's an australian OS demigod. Off to read his post about your comment.
ASH at Amazon (Kindle for PC is free!)
I loved reading about Arabella!
Thanks for the initial curiousity, trilogy and fernsy : )
I heard a octopus if plural is `
a`
Octopuses. One is Octopi. 2?
a`
two-Octopodes. It's -'i' podi.
If it's one Matt. Two is`Pust.
That's from Trilogy @ 12:06.
PM.
Poor Matt Proust. He's nice.
He will hold no mean grudge.
Matt may hug Trilogy tights.
`
That's appropriate. Huh? Hug.
I need a hug. I visited Neighbor.
They make new-wine-beverages.
I bit of nice-hugging is appropriate.
Never pickpocket - no hug too long.
I am still very far - behind. Behave.
&
& Mu gadget seems to malfunction!
2nd try. It's not commenting today.
&
& Mu 3rd try make me sip goat milk!
I have a new published book to add to your list:
Wet Firecrackers--the Unauthorized Autobiography of Gordon Osmond.
www.gordonosmondbio.webs.com
It's available on all the usual online bookstores, e.g. Amazon
I also review books for bookpleasures.com and bookideas.com
This is a wonderful thing for you to do. I hope someday in some way, you'll be amply rewarded.
ASH - your list sounds quite impressive, it shall soon be added to the list.
Nick van Valkenburgh has a volume of poetry under his pen name Jon Carter van Valkenburgh called "Meeting in the Stew".
C.Clark's memoir "A Cherry Burn" is coming out in February, I think.
FrogTownDiva has a book "They Just Be Killing White Folks". Chillerpop has a great post on it. http://open.salon.com/blog/chillerpop/2011/10/25/october_26_-_grave_justice
Thanks for putting this up! :)
Thank you so much for sharing!
