Description

"These days, it seems I can’t visit a bookstore without running into stacks of Blooks. “What’s a blook?” you ask?

- A blook is printed book that contains or is based on content from a blog.

There are many examples: PostSecret, Awkward Family Photos, $#*! My Dad Says, Graph Out Loud, Cake Wrecks: When Professional Cakes Go Hilariously Wrong… the list goes on and on.

For his take on the blook trend, Nora interviewed Tim Carmody. Tim’s a writer, literary historian, blogger, and self-described “BookFuturist.” (http://www.cbc.ca/spark/2010/09/full-interview-tim-carmody-on-blooks/?)
