This was in The Scotsman’s book supplement at the weekend. I’d post a link but can’t find it on their website…

Oh well done Vanessa – just a pity it does not get reprinted in The Times, Guardian, Independent etc!
The library idea makes huge sense (and it could have included everyone then).
I like Andrew’s idea too – as long as I am one of the novelists.

Hi, to be honest, I’m not clear what the benefits were supposed to be when we agreed to be a collection point. I don’t think we expected anything from it. We were fairly clueless about how things were to operate; the WBN website was unclear and we called but didn’t get any straight answers. Boxes started arriving as WBN got closer. These stacked up, so we had to find a place to hold them. We had no way of knowing how to contact those who had ordered them. People showed up every now and then to collect them – several boxes at a time; one person came one week after WBN. I am not sure whether participating in this scheme brought goodwill to the shop or not. I think as a collection point, we provided some form of free warehousing as the books travelled in transit between the publishers, the givers and their intended recipients – I suppose we provided a service to potential customers. I don’t think this initiative had any influence on sales – but then again, we never imagined it would.
