Fed up standing in the rain to see J.K. Rowling? Annoyed at having to travel miles to hear what Jeremy Archer has to say?

Selected authors will go on a tour of blogs and other literary websites over the next few months.

It’s either a brilliant idea (low carbon footprint, catching bookworms when they’re at their computer just an inch away from the “buy” button) or utterly insane (Google the phrase “trying to get bloggers in line” comes up with the response “you might as well try herding cats”) – either way, it’s a cheap, innovative way of getting a particular author out via new media. The only thing is…on the web, you can’t recycle the same old anecdotes time after time!
