		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;There’s no simple gender indicator for the weird fusion of insecurity and ambition, of the feigned nonchalance and quiet competitiveness that’s common in writers of all sorts. But these traits are complicated by the cultural caricatures of ambitious women and the uneven historical patterns that have dictated whose talent is rewarded and whose isn’t.

		<description><![CDATA[“It has been a fascinating phenomenon in the discussion around publishing how adversarial people get around other people’s choices. So if someone says “I like an ebook,” a person will respond “Ohhh, I can’t believe — how can you do that?” It’s like that obnoxious person who you don’t want to go out to dinner...<a href="http://www.carolynyates.com/books/ereading/" class="more">Read More</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;It is perhaps a symptom of print’s decline that the current conversation about the book’s demise has forgotten all these other ones. Instead we shuttle between two equally hollow poles: goofball digital boosterism a la Negroponte on one side and on the other a helpless, anguished nostalgia for the good old days of papercuts.

A rare critic who pondered this mystery was C.S. Lewis, who — in a wonderful little book titled &#8220;An Experiment in Criticism&#8221; — devoted considerable attention to the appeal of bad writing for what he termed the &#8220;unliterary&#8221;...<a href="http://www.carolynyates.com/books/bad-writing/" class="more">Read More</a>]]></description>
