Redroom.com founded by Ivory Madison "I want it to be a household name, where people start when they're looking for an author, a book or what people are saying about current ideas or event."
She's holding some of the BayArea bestsellers, "EAT,PRAY,LOVE", "IT'S SO YOU,", "THE OMNIVORE'S DILEMMA", "THE KITE RUNNER".
I don't really write, but redroom also caters even just to readers.. =) guess what? I signed myself up to get a hold of Amy Tan's latest blog or just any author I like or authors and books I would want to dig! If Craig Newmark, founder of craigslist.com, can read 50 books a year, then why coudn't we? It's about time!
One more quick leak from my thoughts: I think Maxine Hong Kingston is really a heroine for assisting, guiding, and teaching retired bayarea soldiers how to be creative writers and authors of their own books. However, I sold her "WOMAN WARRIOR" for an awful price of $2.50... I feel bad. Naku..
