Practical Tips on Writing a Book from 23 Brilliant Authors | NeuroTribes. Hello there! If you enjoy the content on Neurotribes, consider subscribing for future posts via email or RSS feed. Steve Silberman reading at the Booksmith in SF. Photo by Heather Champ. I love books. My late father Donald, who taught Wordsworth and Melville to inner-city kids for decades, used to read Ulysses to me while he carried me on his shoulders. Perhaps it was inevitable that I grew up to be a writer. The subject of my book is autism, the variety of human cognitive styles, and the rise of the neurodiversity movement.

The science of developmental disorders has made significant advances in recent years, and some of the social issues that I raised in the piece — such as the contributions that people with atypical cognitive styles have made to the progress of science, technology, and culture — seem more relevant than ever. I’ve signed a contract with a wonderful publisher — a Penguin imprint called Avery Books — and a sharp and enthusiastic editor named Rachel Holtzman. Carl Zimmer. Tunlr.net.

Creare e Gestire Concorsi Facebook: Cosa Dobbiamo Sapere? Creare e Gestire Concorsi su Facebook è un argomento spinoso, in quanto ci sono diverse regole descritte da Facebook, che bisogna seguire per non incorrere in pesanti sanzioni e problematiche varie. Ho avuto modo di seguire personalmente pianificazioni strategiche per alcuni Brand su Facebook, e diventa vitale conoscere cosa e in che modo è possibile fare determinate attività, e cosa non è possibile concretamente fare.

50 Shades of Infographic. Pittacus Lore talks 'Rise of Nine' When Lorien elder Pittacus Lore called me earlier this week, I had a hard time understanding him at first. Of course it was due to the voice-changer he was using to hide his identity, as he is in the midst of a high-stakes, intergalactic battle against the Mogadorians. At great personal risk, Lore spoke to EW about his new book Rise of Nine (Aug. 21) in the Lorien Legacies series.

He also shared his thoughts on the I Am Number Four movie and what Loriens like to read and watch. Also read on for news of Lore’s possible book signing appearances in the future.

The DNA of a Successful Book. Today’s graphic illustrates the ‘perfect’ book. A piece of literature that pleases a broad crowd a lot like pop music. Just like pop music’s 3 minute song, best selling books have a normal length of a little less than four hundred pages. Men are more likely to read a story with a male protagonist, yet a publication with women protagonists are much more likely to become a big hit.

There are more than 5 million accounts on Facebook that are inactive due to death, according to the calculations of BlackBook Media's Executive Editor Chris Mohney. And that's just Facebook. Think about all of the other social sites and online services out there - the number of abandoned accounts due to death must be enormous. After someone passes away, their digital assets live on in the form of computer files and data online. For some, that's not a big deal.
