1. I haven't contacted my favorite authors or gone to their websites - I guess I was just content with the reading itself! For the purpose of this exercise, I went to Stephen King's website, since I figured there might be alot going on there. I was right! He will be appearing at the Charlotte County Library (Florida) to kick off their Big Read! Wow! I saw that there is a forum message board which Stephen King does peruse from time to time, but the site does not provide a direct email address to him.
2. The idea of a book being published based on popular vote might help in my faith in the material - as long as that is not the only criteria used. I like the idea of publishers also using their expertise in deciding what should be printed. It will be interesting to note how the Authonomy website concept works in years to come, as to individuals being able to upload their material, the materials being rated online, and then, possibly, being published.
