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..
