Hi,

As mentioned in yesterday's call, I was at a seminar this week for 
academic publishers. The most popular speaker was Ros Lawler of Random 
House Publishers (I know she was the most popular because the organisers 
made it into a competition - Ros came top, and I'm pretty sure I came 
bottom!).

Anyway - having worked at places like Radio 1 in the past she's now 
using social media to put authors and readers in touch - thinks like 
Authors Place[1]. I've invited her along to talk about that use - what 
works and what doesn't - as I hope it will give an angle on our work 
that we won't get from within ourselves.

Given that a lot of us are thinking about our summer holidays and not 
really much else at this time, I've arranged for Ros to join the call on 
Wednesday 23rd September.

I've put it on the Wiki [2] but is there an actual calendar somewhere 
that I'm missing?

Phil.
