The bookseller's daughter. The booksellers at laurelwood memphis tn. The booksellers movie trailer. Might be too much testosterone in that room. Need a women or two there. Also, Im having good luck getting free books from my neighbors on NextDoor. Its not Gaylords but they arent picked over. The booksellers documentary where to watch. I'm only halfway through this video and I already love it haha. I loved working at a bookstore but I think it was the most stressful retail job that I ever had. Everyone complained that it was more expensive than Amazon so I would try to explain why and that you don't get to have the person to person experience at a bookstore or someone helping you look for a book, or that the author/publisher gets more for their work when purchased at a bookstore. OR that people would get mad when we didn't have something in stock. WE CAN'T KEEP EVERY BOOK EVER MADE IN STOCK! lol I could order it and it would be here in two or three days but no, we live in an I want it NOW world lol Or that people expected booksellers to know about/have read every book in the store. I could go on lol There were good parts to the job though. But you are spot on! Love this video.

The booksellers miamisburg oh. The booksellers ibadan. Skeleton Man: Infuriating people on earth & in space. The booksellers austin landing. The booksellers in memphis. The booksellers association. Why is "Looking for Alaska" not a movie yet? I mean, "The Fault in Our Stars" is good, and "Paper Towns", too. But imo, your best work by far, is Looking for Alaska... I sold the movie rights to Paramount in 2005 when we desperately needed money, because we were moving to New York and Sarah (my wife) was starting graduate school. It was life-changing for us, and I'll always be grateful to everyone involved in that deal for making it happen. But it did not lead to a movie. (At least not yet. ) The reasons for this are complicated, but it boils down to this: It is really, really hard to get people to say "I want to spend $15, 000, 000 to make a movie out of a book not that many people have read. " I am really proud of The Fault in Our Stars movie, and I think it turned out unbelievably well. It's one of the most faithful movie adaptations I've ever seen, and I'm tremendously grateful to everyone who made it. But that is a rare, rare thing. Usually an author's relationship with their movie adaptations is much mplicated. And so I have to say, I'm not bummed out that Alaska hasn't been made into a movie. (It may someday; I don't control the rights and never will. ) There's something magical to a story belonging to its readers and only to its readers, and I'm very grateful that Alaska has continued to find its way in the world without the boost of a movie adaptation. Harry Potter will forever be Daniel Radcliffe to me. I can't remember how I imagined Harry before the movies. But your Pudge and your still belong to you. They are still inside your head, and yours alone. There's something wonderful about that. What do you think about when a movie adaptation gives the story a certain quality that is unique, but at the sime time a slight detour from the book? I think a movie adaptation's first responsibility is to be a good movie. I would rather the movie be good than faithful. That said, I'm a lot more concerned with tones and ideas than with plot. Keeping the FEELING of the story seems like the biggest challenge to me, and one of the reasons I'm so so so proud of the TFIOS movie is that people keep telling me that it made them feel the way the book made them feel. All the credit for that goes to the screenwriters, the director, the cast, and the crew, but I really do think they did a great job. Hey John, do you ever have trouble with procrastination? If so, is there anything in particular that helps you to focus? I mean, I do spend a lot of time on reddit, if that's what you're asking. Because why the Faulk not? EDIT: Thank you so kindly for the gold, the silver, and the platinum appointed internet love. I truly appreciate it. I give this comment Reddit Silver. Who the eff is hank? Hank is a mass of incandescent gas. John, how did you go about deciding the names for your main characters? How much math did you have to learn/relearn in order to write An Abundance of Katherines? I had to learn a lot about math to write Katherines, even though Daniel Biss did all the actual math in the book. But I needed to understand the ideas in order to write about them. As for names: One of the benefits of naming characters that you don't have when, say, naming a baby is that you actually know the person when you name them. So you can use the name to reflect stuff about them. Like, take Hazel: Hazel is an in-between color, and she's in between a lot of things: In between healthy and sick, in between adulthood and childhood, in between breathing air and breathing water, etc. So that seemed like a small way of communicating the instability and fear (but also excitement) of that time of life. With Augustus: Augustus is the name of Roman emperors, right? It's a grand name associated with traditional notions of greatness. But Gus is a kid's name. It's short and cute. In the novel, he makes the journey from strength to weakness, which is the opposite of the usual hero's journey. He starts out this confident, pretentious kid who's extremely performative in his every action. And then he becomes vulnerable. He becomes cracked open. For Gus, this is a brutal process. (Remember that moment toward the end when he says to Hazel, "You used to call me Augustus? ") But his ability to be in it with her, and to allow himself to love and be loved despite the loss of the self he so carefully cultivated, is to my mind way more heroic than those traditional notions of Great Men Doing Great Things. In the case of Katherines, I called them Katherine because it's a good name for anagramming. There are a lot of anagrams in Katherines, and I suck at anagramming, so I cheated by picking a name that has the right mix of consonants and vowels. Hi John - Why is your username thesoundandthefury? It's from Macbeth originally. Macbeth says life is... "a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. " Then Faulkner repurposed it for the title of his great novel "The Sound and the Fury. " Then I rerepurposed it for a reddit username. If you could have dinner with one person, alive or dead, who would you choose? Difficult question but honestly probably my grandmother. Yes, it would be nice to find out what Jesus or Muhammad or Cleopatra really thought and valued, but I miss my grandmother a lot and would like to hear some of her stories about growing up in Skullbone, Tennessee just one last time. As Fault in Our Stars has been such a well deserved success; do you feel more nervous about writing new projects now? And the great blessing of my professional life is that when I feel overwhelmed and/or freaked out about the prospect of writing, I can do other stuff. I can devote myself to Crash Course and The Art Assignment and working with nerdfighter artists and designers through DFTBA Records. How do you balance your work as a author, educator, father and professional FIFA player? Do you have set "YouTube only" and "writing only" days, or do a little of everything every day? Well, just to be clear, I am a retired professional FIFA player, because I no longer make money from being terrible at FIFA. The money I make from being terrible at FIFA goes to sponsor the great AFC Wimbledon, a fourth-tier English football club owned by its fans. But to your question: In an ideal world, I write in the morning and do other stuff (email, booking travel, shooting crash course/art assignment/mental floss, etc. ) in the afternoon. But right now I'm not writing much because the movie stuff has been very hectic and overwhelming. Hopefully things will return to normal after the film comes out and I'll be back to writing every morning, because I love to write and feel much less sane when I'm not doing it. John, I want to begin a YouTube series, like Crash Course, that explains concepts in economics, politics, and maybe even political philosophy. I am new to every aspect of video making, editing, and vlogging. What advice would you give for someone trying to start an educational, yet entertaining, vlog? It's very challenging these days, because you need so many skills: You need to be a good communicator, a good researcher, a good video editor, a good animator, etc. I'm lucky that I started out back when you could be good at basically nothing and find an audience because there was much less content. My advice would be to start making videos. Just start making them and let yourself get better as you go, and really give as much of yourself as possible to improving each time you upload, and not to worry about quantity of audience so much as quality of engagement. Like, a lot of people watch CSI, right? A LOT. And it's a good, entertaining program. (Probably. I don't think I've ever seen it. ) But the quality of connection is not that high. Very few people say things like, "CSI changed my life, " or "I live a different and more engaged life today because CSI taught me the magic of Enhancing. " It's a lot cooler in my opinion to make stuff that people find really important and/or useful than it is to make stuff that a lot of people watch. "You need to be... a good research. " "I started out back when you be good. " New York Times Bestselling author John Green. SORRY! But now I can just deny that your comment ever had any validity. I don't what you're talking about! There were no typos in my answer. YOU NEED TO GO TO BED. Do you identify as a feminist? I ask because feminism is very misunderstood culturally and while many of your sentiments seem very feminist to me I have never heard you use the word (as far as I remember). Yes, I do. My hardcore badass feminist mom told both my brother and me that we were feminists from the time we were like two years old, so if she ever heard me saying I wasn't a feminist she'd fly to my house and smack me upside the head. Hey John. How do you feel about your family and their privacy when it comes to your online presence? Well, I realize it's a bit strange to be like, "AMA on reddit! Follow me on tumblr! Read my tweets about what I had for breakfast! BUT DO NOT COME NEAR MY FAMILY OR VIOLATE OUR PRIVACY. " But yeah. It's inappropriate to go to people's houses, and we do--too often--have people come by the house and knock on the door or leave stuff in the mailbox. That's very scary to me, but it's also weird and disorienting for my kids to be playing in the front yard and have people they don't know drive by and shout "Hi Henry! Hi Alice! " There is a difference between the person I am professionally and the person I am privately, and I need to hold onto that in order not to lose my mind, and also in order to be a good father and husband. So I do seek privacy in my personal life insofar as possible. That said, if you ever see me at like Target or whatever, feel free to come up and say hi. If I'm in public, I know that I'm in public, and it's always nice to meet people who like the stuff I make, and I genuinely want you to say hi. (That's not the case for many people, I know, but it is the case for me. ) Hey John! Being an Australian, I can't believe I managed to finally catch one of these! Right now I'm reading "Brown Girl Dreaming" by Jacqueline Woodson, a book of poetry published for kids but also great for adults. Like all of Jackie's work, its beauty draws you in and then the gut punches of the world hit you so hard. It's great. Just finished and am still haunted by "An Untamed State" by Roxane Gay. What a novel! Just wow. And I'm rereading "Behind the Beautiful Forevers" for the nerdfighter summer book club. Anyway- What have you been reading lately? Holy Crap, John Green is here to answer questions!? I love the vlogbrothers videos but I haven't been active in Nerdfighteria at all, but I am going to see the TFIOS movie. Can I still call myself a Nerdfighter? Absolutely. If you want to be a nerd fighter you are one. One of the central ideas around nerdfighter as an identity is that it's something all of us are making up together all the time. We don't want it to be a rigidly defined thing but instead a community driven by shared values (decreasing worldsuck, for instance) and engaged conversations. Pineapple on pizza; yes or no? If pineapple pizza shows up at my house, I'm going to eat it. There's not much you can do to a pizza to keep me from eating it. But in general I would never CHOOSE to put fruit on a pizza. What do you think is the future of CrashCourse? World History is one of my favourite things on YT. Do you plan to do a whole multitude of subjects (physics, math, art, music,.. )? Yes, we're going to continue expanding Crash Course as resources allow. People who watch Crash Course have been really awesome about funding the show through Subbable, which has allowed us to achieve financial stability. The challenge now is expanding our offerings so that Crash Course can be useful to a wider variety of students and people who are just interested in learning. The first step on that front is a 10-episode Big History course, an interdisciplinary approach to history that begins with the Big Bang and charts the formation of the Solar System and eventual emergence of life. That project is funded by a Bill Gates organization, and we're really excited about it. But there will be a wider variety of courses in the future. So is Bill Gates a Nerdfighter? Kinda. Hey John! Mongolian dropping in. Will you ever make a video about Mongolia today? Are we still the exception? I think a Crash Course World History about contemporary Mongolia is actually a great idea. Thanks for the idea, and I apologize in advance for when I don't give you credit for it. Do you sometimes abuse being famous? What are the perks of being a celebrity? (Even if becoming one was not your intention) The only like really cool perk of being a celebrity that I ever experienced: I really like these socks called Happy Socks. I wear them a lot, and they're very comfortable, and they have lots of great argyle designs. (I like argyle socks. ) And I guess someone who works at Happy Socks has a kid who is a nerdfighter, and so they sent me some free Happy Socks. Hank and I have a rule that we don't do product placement or accept gifts from companies in exchange for talking about them. This has resulted in me having to turn down some pretty sweet gifts, including, like, cars. BUT NOT THE HAPPY SOCKS. I TOOK THOSE HAPPY SOCKS. I COULD NOT RESIST. I AM WEARING THEM RIGHT NOW. Oh the other perk is that whenever I travel for the movie, Fox gets me a person who puts makeup on me in the morning, and it turns out I really love wearing makeup, and these people do such a good job of making me look young and untired and etc., and I just love it and wish a makeup artist would come to my house every morning and put makeup on me. Necessary hi/big fan/etc. sentence:) Are there any books you've read that you truly do not understand and/or really dislike? Why? Yes, I hate Atlas Shrugged. I met you a few years ago at a convention and had several drinks while spending a half hour and three glasses of wine to work up the courage to tell you how much your work and the fact that you do it with and are open about anxiety means to me. It did not come out well. Sorry about that. It was both one of my favorite conversations and most embarrassing all at once. What scene was the coolest to see come to life? Don't worry about it. Those conversations are always weird and hard and I often fret about them for years after they happen, but the truth is that it's hard to express this stuff. It's hard for me to tell you how genuinely grateful I am that you've found something valuable in my work. So I'm sure I walked away from that conversation thinking that you were perfectly lovely and I was a complete grapefruit. As for TFIOS: The cancer support group days with Mike Birbiglia and all the teens living with cancer were the coolest days for me to see come to life. But really, every day was wonderful. It really was just a dream movie experience--the opposite of what usually happens to authors--and while the movie is not mine in any way, I'm so proud of the people who made it. What are the pros and cons of having a large teen fanbase? I don't really know if there are cons to it? Adults used to be less likely to take my work seriously, but that hasn't been the case with TFIOS. The pros, for me: Teenagers give a shit. They are unironically enthusiastic, and they look at big questions about meaning and suffering and responsibility directly and without embarrassment. This inspires me, because I also like thinking about those questions but sometimes feel that there's something naive or childish about, like, seeking authentic and sincere emotional and intellectual ways of engaging. I really like that about them. Plus, they're forming their values, which is a hugely important process, and it's a great honor to be offered a seat at the table in that conversation. I started watching Crash Course: World History a couple of weeks ago and I'm really impressed with the format of the show. What impresses me most, however, is your approach to teaching history by questioning societal and geographic norms and acknowledging that our traditional assumptions about history might not always be correct. I've learned a lot, so thank you! My question is if this was a motivation for you. Did you have a grudge against traditional history teaching? If not, what were your inspirations? The biggest inspiration for the approach to World History is my high school history teacher, Raoul Meyer, who writes the videos and whose commitment to a non-Eurocentric view of world history was hugely important to me in high school and still is. Mostly I want to take multiple approaches to the study of history because we need to understand that the way we remember is shaped by the voices we listen to, and by the assumptions that we make about the world. Hi John, just wanted to know who do you think is the favorite to win the World Cup? Personally, I like Germany because, you know, they're Germany. What about you? Thanks! My loyalty is defined ENTIRELY by who has donated the most to sarcoma research so at the moment I think the United States is the unquestionable favorite and is so certain to win the Cup that they basically should just send it to the U. S. before play even begins. If you donate a thousand dollars on behalf of Germany, though, my opinion will change dramatically. What's your favourite movie? Harvey is the one movie that I think genuinely may have changed the course of my life, but my favorite movie is probably Rushmore. As a boarding school kid who wasn't a great student, it really resonates with me. Also Rushmore is a big point of connection between my wife and me, by which I mean we were watching it the first time we made out. There was a lot of hype about you being in the tFiOS film. Do you know the reasoning behind that scene/ those scenes being cut? Can you tell us what scene(s) you were going to be in? The scene I was in takes place at the airport as Hazel and Gus leave for Amsterdam. A girl (I play her father) asks Hazel about her cannula and then tries them on. This scene happens in the book, but the context and timing are different. It was cut from the movie not because I was terrible (although I was! ) but because the scene really did not need to be in the movie. It created an unnecessary pause between finding out they were going to Amsterdam and actually going to Amsterdam, and Josh felt (I agree) that it needed to flow directly into the trip itself. That said, I think it is ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS that I got cut from the movie adaptation of my own book, and that's why I won't shut up about it. John Green. The line about falling in love is like falling asleep.. "slowly, then all at once".. Why do I feel like I've heard it before..? More importantly- What inspired it? It's a great line. There's a similarish line from Hemingway: "How did you go bankrupt? " "Two ways: Gradually, then suddenly. " So maybe there? That was my initial inspiration for the line. What was dinner like at your house growing up? Did you and your brother sit there with your parents and just rattle off facts about the world at a million words a minute? Kinda. We ate dinner together as a family pretty much every night, and there was a lot of conversation about the news and the meaning of life and all that stuff. It was a very intellectually invigorating childhood, and my brother responded by being a wonderful student and a great person. I responded by being a terrible student who caused my parents endless misery. Are you an organ donor? Why or why not? Yes, I am. I mean, my liver is not going to be of use to me after I am deceased, but it might be of use to someone else. This seems like a pretty clear-cut choice to me. What's your take on the decline of brick-and-mortar bookstores and the rise of online book sales? Does this affect you in any way as an author? (Also, if you ever wanted to do a book signing at your hometown Books-A-Million, that'd be awesome! ) Well, I am an old person, so I have no real perspective on this, because I like bookstores and think they are vital to my process of discovery. Booksellers have turned me onto writers I never would've discovered otherwise, and I like having experts (librarians, booksellers, etc. ) to help guide my reading choices. But the one thing I will say is this: We need more than one outlet for books. I'm very, very scared that in the future there will only be two kinds of books: Those that are available only through Amazon, and those that are widely available via Big Box stores like Wal-Mart and Target. In that world, traditional publishers could only add value to widely distributed books, which would basically mean that Wal-Mart decides what American literature is widely distributed, which I think would suck. Then over at Amazon, you'd have a huge and very flat marketplace in which lots of stuff will struggle to find the audience it deserves. I'm not worried about me in that world; I'm "good at the Internet" or whatever and have a direct relationship with my audience. But I am worried about, say, the next Toni Morrison. Beloved became a massive bestseller when it was published 40 years ago. It's hard for me to imagine that happening in an amazon-only future. John, First of all, huge fan of your books and all of your projects! I have a sort of non-allofthosethings related question: A few weeks ago in a Wimbly Wombly video, you mentioned that you drive (or would like to drive) a Chevy Volt. I'm in the market for a new car, and was hoping to get your thoughts on the Volt? I love my Volt. It's so fun to drive and very fuel efficient (I often go a thousand miles on 10 gallons of gas). Cannot recommend it highly enough. It's not really an economically rational choice (there I would've gone Camry or Ford Fusion), but when The Fault in Our Stars took off I was like, "I'm going to buy my dream car. " So I did. What about a Tesla? I like my Volt. Sure, I dream about having a Tesla, but in the morning, I always tell my Volt, "I had a dream about another car last night, but then I woke and realized I have precisely the cybergray machine I've always wanted, " and then I start singing that song from The Bodyguard to my Volt. I've seen you mention several times that yourself and Hank don't like to disclose your religious and political views (publicly). Why is this? And since this is an AMA, could you maybe give us a hint? I talk about my religion reasonably often. (there's a great line in my wikipedia article--not that I obsessively read my wikipedia article--that goes, "Green has stated that he is Episcopalian. " Hank is, so far as I know, an atheist. No, this is not weird for us. And no, it does not mean that we have different values or approaches to morality or anything. I am Episcopalian. I find a lot of the conversation about religion online really, really boring. (For instance, I am not very interested in the question of whether there is actually a God, because I think it's very hard to define the words "is" and "actually" in that sentence, and that it quickly becomes a kind of how-many-angels-can-you-fit-on-the-head-of-a-pin conversation. ) But i go to church (although not every week), and continue to find my faith an important and engaging part of my life. Politically, I guess I lean to the left in the U. S., but in most of Europe, I would lean to the right. Depends on the issue. I think free markets are mostly good for economies, but that income inequality is a massive problem for social orders, and that markets cannot address that problem. Relevant XKCD. There is always a relevant XKCD. Do you think you can keep the community feeling of nerdfighteria even as your fan base explodes due to the TFIOS movie? This is a great question, and it's something that Hank and I talk about a lot. There were a few hundred nerdfighters in July of 2007, and then Hank's song "Accio Deathly Hallows" went viral and there were suddenly several thousand nerdfighters. That transition was very challenging for us personally and for the community, but I really think we emerged from it with a stronger sense of our shared values as nerdfighters and a better platform for doing stuff together like the Project for Awesome. In our videos, we aren't talking that much about all the attention and scrutiny that accompanies the TFIOS movie because we mostly just want to keep the community the same. (I mean, my first video after TFIOS comes out will be about Behind the Beautiful Forevers, this summer's nerdfighter book club selection. ) I think it will be challenging for a while, but I also think nerdfighters are generally a pretty welcoming and supportive bunch. I'm very grateful to everybody for their patience with me in my time of intense crazy, though. Hi John. I'm a soon to be 21 year old with muscular dystrophy. I want to do YouTube/vlogging since I don't work. As someone who's never done this sort of thing, what is the first thing I should know about entering the world of YouTube? It's really hard to let go of your self-consciousness, but it's also vital, because you have to create the most authentic relationship possible with your viewers. Also, like anything, you can't expect to be great at it from the beginning. Work hard at getting better--more precise, better edited, etc. it's a craft and you have to give yourself over to it. Lastly be patient with yourself. We made 110 videos before we had 200 subscribers. What matters to me is not how many people watch our videos but how much they matter to the people who do watch. I wish you great success! How have Puff Levels been recently? Puff levels are pretty high at the moment around here. This is without question the most intense and stressful and weird and non-normal period of my life. What subject would you like to cover in Crash Course that hasn't come up yet? As for Crash Course: I'd love to do more interdisciplinary stuff where we learn stuff together but don't necessarily follow a traditional curriculum. And I'd love to do a course on civics and government. Would you do a collaboration with "Thug Notes"? DFTBA. Maybe. I really like what they do! (I do sometimes feel, though, that they don't dig deeply enough into WHY critical reading is important. For me at least, it's not about getting a good grade on a test. It's about finding ways deep into big and difficult questions about consciousness. ) Would you consider a career in politics? No. no no no no no no no no no no. No. I realize this is an unpopular opinion, but I actually admire people who serve in elected office, because it is difficult and complicated work and I think most of them really are trying to do right by their constituents. One of the things I dislike most about human social orders is the concept of the "meeting, " in which a bunch of people sit together for a long period of time discussing a project to death and then form a task force to discuss it further so that the task force can produce a report which will then be considered at another series of meetings by a different group of people. God, I hate meetings with such ferocity. I can't even tell you. When I am forced to sit in a meeting, I usually rock back and forth in my chair for a while before eventually saying to the people I work with, "I'm sorry but if this meeting goes on any longer I am going to actually and literally die. " Anyway, politics involves a lot of meetings. So no. What are the differences between how you thought it would be to be a writer and how it actually is to be a writer? Well, I imagined writing very romantically: You go to excellent parties and meet fascinating people who discuss nothing but books and high ideas, and then you go home to a modern house made of glass and steel that you bought with all of your sweet, sweet book riches and then you polish your Pulitzer prizes and go to bed. In reality of course it is mostly staring at a computer and thinking. It's extremely isolating work in a lot of ways, which suits me very well, and I never feel happier than when I'm writing. But it's not what I imagined at all. I imagined the joy would be in the Being A Writer part of being a writer. But in reality, for me, almost all of the joy is in the Writing part of being a writer. Hey John! Big Fan!! Well, I loved writing Will Grayson, Will Grayson with David Levithan, and I loved writing Let It Snow with Lauren Myracle and Maureen Johnson. It would be wonderful to collaborate with any of them in the future. I always wondered... Who would you love to write a book with? But one thing I've learned over the years is that I am kind of horrible to work with? As my wife once said, my creative process is fueled by doubt and anxiety, which isn't like an A#1 experience to welcome friends into. DFTBA!! :D. One last answer to your question: EVERY book I've written has been written with two collaborators: Sarah (my wife) and Julie Strauss-Gabel, my editor and publisher. My collaborative relationship with Julie is extremely important to me, and she helps guide my stories from the moment I read her a few paragraphs over the phone to the final copyedits. Just throwing this out there: Ransom Riggs and you collaborating would be a dream-come-true for me. Ransom and I have been friends since college and we actually HAVE collaborated. If you search youtube thoroughly enough you can find some very weird (and not terribly funny) comedy sketches we wrote together at Kenyon. Favorite Mountain Goats album? Tough call, but probably The Sunset Tree. What was your favorite cartoon when you were growing up? What was the one where they lived at the bottom of the ocean? Snorks? And what was the one where the animals wore shirts??? Those two. How do you know exactly what it's like to be a young girl with a chronic illness? My younger self needed TFIOS and my current self appreciates it more than you can know. Was Hazel Grace inspired by a real person in your life? That's very kind of you to say. Thanks. Edit: My brain and words do not get along this morning. I was good friends with a young woman named Esther Earl who died of cancer in 2010 when she was 16. And I could never have written TFIOS without knowing and loving Esther. (That said, Esther and Hazel are very different people. ) But ultimately fiction is always about imagining and trying to empathize, so I just tried to imagine her as best I could. I'm sure there's a lot of stuff I got wrong, but the fundamental emotional experience of being a person who is living with illness or disability but not wholly defined by illness... I think that's pretty universal, and I'm very grateful if I got it right enough for you to feel the connection. Do you have any advice for someone aspiring to be an editor, or looking for other possible professions in the writing field? Follow editors on twitter and tumblr. See what they find interesting. Read a lot. Read a lot of new books, including ones you might not like that much. Find out what kind of books interest you: YA novels? Cookbooks? Trivia? What sections of the bookstore do you want to edit the books in? Then move to New York. That's my honest advice. Move to New York and try to get your foot in the door somewhere and work your ass off.

The booksellers greenwich entertainment. OMG Rebecca from pawn stars. The booksellers (2019. The booksellers imdb. The booksellers book awards. Hi Ariel! I just went to try to subscribe to your channel after our interview today and realized. I was already subscribed. I think I've subscribed to a lot of book channels over the years and then not kept up, but will definitely be checking out more of your videos now that we've talked.

Click here to read the full article. It’s never a surprise to learn that the Internet has upended a business, or an entire industry. But in the lovely and wistful documentary “ The Booksellers, ” we hear one telling illustration of how the online universe has revolutionized the world of vintage books, and it’s an object lesson so fraught with irony that it’s a little head-spinning. Imagine that it was, say, the early ’90s, and you were a rare-book maven with an impassioned, if not obsessive-compulsive, desire to accumulate a complete collection of the works of Edith Wharton, all in first editions. (Since Edith Wharton happens to be my favorite writer, this example nabbed my attention. ) How would you do it? You’d go to vintage bookstores, attend auctions, work with a dealer. You’d gather your first editions one by one, over time, and the slow and steady hunt would be part of the pleasure. More from Variety New York Film Review: 'Bully. Coward. Victim. The Story of Roy Cohn' Adam Sandler on Oscar Buzz, Working With the Safdie Brothers and 'Uncut Gems' as a 'Love Letter' to New York City Todd Phillips: Why Depiction of Realistic Violence in 'Joker' Is 'Very Responsible' But in the world of online book selling, where everything is catalogued and digitized, it’s all potentially a lot simpler. You can still play treasure hunt if you’d like, but all you really have to do is say, “I’d like to own a first-edition copy of every book Edith Wharton ever wrote, ” and the computer does the searching for you, all at once. To gather this collection, all you’d have to be ready to do is to put the total sum on your credit card. In a sense, that’s exhilarating. In rare books, as in so many other things, the Internet can reduce the search for the Holy Grail to an instant click-and-score. But with the hunt made borderline irrelevant, you’re no longer quite collecting; you’re just buying. The thrill may not be gone, but it’s reduced. And for the vintage book-store owner — the professional bibliophile, the man or woman who knows they’re buying and selling not just old books but sacred artifacts — the impact of Internet commerce has been a slow-motion debacle. The web turns them, more and more, into not-so-necessary middlemen. Of course, what the Internet is also doing is accelerating, rather radically, the erosion of our collective passion for book culture. It’s not as if it’s gone away! But when it comes to feeding the book business as a business, the number of people who spend time reading things between covers is in a rapid state of decline. Yet if the rare-book trade has reached a crucial moment of struggle, “The Booksellers” reveals that it’s hanging on in novel ways. The present-tense sheen of the 21st century has altered the meaning, and place, of books in our society in ways that can make them seem even more valuable. You might say that vintage books are now like vinyl albums — but in this case, they always were. So “The Booksellers” invites us to dote on the tactile mystery of old books — the elegance of the print, the pages that may be fragmenting, the colorful latticework bindings, the back-breaking size of certain old volumes, like the Gutenberg Bible (more or less the first book ever printed, dating back to the mid-1400s), or one giant book we see that contains intricate drawings of fish skeletons. D. W. Young, the director of “The Booksellers, ” is a veteran film editor who leads us into grand and cozy old bookstores like the mysterious museums they are. He roots the movie in New York City (with a few forays to London), since that’s where the heart of American literary culture still resides, and he introduces us to a cast of characters who are captivating in their what-I-did-for-love devotion. They all have it; if they didn’t, they wouldn’t be in the business. Many of the stores go back to the ’20s, when 4th Ave., known as book row in Manhattan, had close to 50 bookstores, most of them owned and operated, in the words of Fran Lebowitz, by “dusty Jewish men who would get irritated if you wanted to buy a book. ” That, says Lebowitz, is because they’d gone into the business mostly so they could sit around and read all day. The film takes us inside New York’s most fabled bookshop, the Argosy Book Store, founded in 1925 by Louis Cohen and now run by his daughters, Judith, Naomi, and Adina, who are in the rare position of being able to keep the dream alive because they own the six-story building that houses the store on E. 59th St. The dance of literary aesthetics and money is addictive. In the ’50s and ’60s, dust jackets were considered works of art, until they fell out of favor. Now they’re back in fashion, to the point that a first edition of “The Great Gatsby” without a dust jacket is currently worth about $5, 000, whereas with a torn and tattered jacket it would fetch $15, 000, and with a jacket in vintage condition it could go for $150, 000. At the Antiquarian Book Fair held each year at the Park Avenue Armory, we see an original edition of “Don Quixote, ” which is worth $20, 000, and learn that a first edition of the original James Bond novel, “Casino Royale, ” now goes for $150, 000. The comparison to the art market is there in a primal way, even if the book prices are lower (though we do see the auction at which Bill Gates, over the phone, purchased Leonardo’s Codex Hammer for $28 million), with the cost of a vintage book reflecting the ever-shifting values of the culture. “The Booksellers” finds room for tidbits of history, like a thumbnail sketch of the pioneering book maven A. S. Rosenbach, as well as a portrait of the seminal dealer-collectors Leona Rostenberg and Madeleine B. Stern, who had to fight to make their mark in a demimonde of tweedy men. (For years, they were scandalously denied membership in the Grolier Club. ) Rostenberg and Stern became legendary, uncovering Louisa May Alcott’s hidden pseudonym as an author of pulp novels, and opening the doors for the contemporary women dealers we meet, like Rebecca Romney, who became a regular on “Pawn Stars, ” spreading the gospel of rare-book love with a rare crossover charisma. She emerges as the movie’s cockeyed optimist of bibliophilia. There’s a happy contradiction at the heart of antiquarian book culture. The passion for books is about the love of reading — the rhythm of it, the meditative space of it, which increasingly stands as a 19th-century counterpulse to the amped heartbeat of the 21st century. But “The Booksellers” is also about the kind of people who relish vintage books as fetish objects. Those of us who love old books know that feeling. Yet it’s not just about owning; that gorgeous rare volume incarnates the concrete mysticism of the reading experience. “The Booksellers” is a documentary for anyone who can still look at a book and see a dream, a magic teleportation device, an object that contains the world.
