Thanks for reading

We want to thank you all for following this blog for the past few years. We're focusing our efforts on the SUNY Press Facebook page at this time, and for that and a number of other reasons, we're going to let the blog go to an archival status for now. Again, thanks go out to those who followed it reguarly and even those who only read a few posts in recent weeks. We've enjoyed writing for all of you on this blog and hope you'll continue to follow us for the same news and notes on our Facebook page. (And if you haven't signed up for Facebook yet, maybe this is a good enough reason to join!)

Busy busy busy

Spring has sprung in the northeast, and as usual that means our next seasonal catalog—the fall seasonal catalog, mind you—will be dropping soon. We've been busy working on that lately, hence the lack of exciting new blog posts. We hope to remedy this soon, but while you wait, remember to become fans of SUNY Press on Facebook, where you can follow our latest news and notes. Also, get out and enjoy the spring weather!

Find us on Facebook

Short but important post for today: SUNY Press is on Facebook! Find us there by clicking on the Facebook link you see on the right side of our blog, just beneath our logo.

We're still telling Michelle

Our new book of letters to Michelle Obama, Go, Tell Michelle, just won't quit. It's had a splendid month, due in no small part to the tireless work of the coeditors, Barbara Seals Nevergold and Peggy Brooks-Bertram, the contributors, SUNY Press staff, and everyone else involved with the project. It all came together at the right time and it's exploded into its own ever-evolving online community. First the book started showing up on various blogs before it was even published, and now its even started its own Facebook page and built a nice community of fans there in a short period of time. It's now into its third printing and the demand continues to grow. We've even heard that Michelle herself may have gotten her hands on a copy of the book. Sublime.

We're happy to announce that the book has its very own blog now, so check it out here. We hope to keep you posted on everything happening with the book over there, so check back often. In the meantime, enjoy this CNN interview with Barbara and Peggy regarding the book and its early success.
