The [[The Desmond Elliott Prize for Debut Fiction Published in the UK 2013|Desmond Eilliott Prize]] shortlist is out. It's for debut fiction published in the UK in 2013 and we have reviewed all three books. Take a look. You should read all three - of course! - but [[The Panopticon by Jenni Fagan]] has a special place in a corner of Bookbag's heart. We defy you to read our review and fail to rush out and buy a copy!
The Guardian has a [http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2013/jun/11/self-published-ebooks-20-per-cent-genre fascinating article] about self-publishing. Apparently, over 20% of the genre market is now accounted for by self-published books. Overall, 12% of ebooks bought are self-published. But when you include print books, the proportion drops to 2%. Wow. Lots to think about there, wouldn't you say?
