WordSmitten Guidelines. For an author to be a guest on the show, these are our guidelines. (Note: We select editors and publishing executives by invitation only.) 1. We look for guests who have depth, humor, and insight into the craft of writing. 2. If you are a debut author, please send a query letter to our office and include either a synopsis or A.R.E. (advance edition) of your book. 3. If you are self-published, our policy, currently, is to not review non-trade publications. That policy may change in 2009, so check back with us. 4. We receive too many requests to personally respond to each request. If your query letter is brief, polite, and witty, we tend to respond if we are interested in bringing you in as a guest. 5. We produce and broadcast interviews from our studios located in St. Petersburg, Florida. We do broadcast live from our BTR home when our guests are based in New York. Thank you for your interest in being a guest on the WordSmitten about the books broadcast. We appreciate your support of these programs. For more information, visit us at www.wordsmitten.com and if you are interested in our workshops, visit us at Meetup.com for our schedule.

I'm so sorry I'll miss Natalie Goldberg live, but I'll be traveling on Sunday, the 18th! Darn. I have been a fan since I first bought "Writing Down The Bones" back in 1988 or thereabouts. I'll be sure to catch the archive. Olivia

Kate Sullivan interviews Francine Prose, the author of fifteen books of fiction, including "Blue Angel" -- a finalist for the National Book Award. Her newest book, "Anne Frank: the Book, the Life, the Afterlife," launches this week. Her novel, Goldengrove, was published in September 2008. She is the president of PEN American Center. She lives in New York City. ========================= In "Anne Frank: The Book, the Life, the Afterlife," Francine Prose, who is author of "Reading Like a Writer," explores the artistry, ambition, and enduring influence of Anne Frank’s classic, "The Diary of a Young Girl." Approved by both the Anne Frank House Foundation in Amsterdam and the Anne Frank-Fonds in Basel, run by the Frank family, this work of literary criticism unravels the complex, fascinating story of the diary and effectively makes the case for it being a work of art from a precociously gifted writer. ====================== WordSmitten. www.wordsmitten.com www.twitter.com/wordsmitten

Random House's hottest new author, Sana Krasikov, appears live on Sunday, August 31, to talk with Kate Sullivan about a recently released collection of fiction by this author. Krasikov's short stories have appeared in The New Yorker, the Atlantic Monthly, and Zoetrope.
Her debut collection, "One More Year," published by Spiegel and Grau (an imprint of Random House), is receiving wide and deep praise from Publishers Weekly and notable authors. Khaled Hosseini, author of “The Kite Runner,” states that Krasikov creates imperfect characters "who always surprise and who are gloriously brought to life."
Sana Krasikov, a native of the Ukraine who grew up in the former Soviet Republic of Georgia and in the United States, lives in New York City. A graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop, she is spending the summer in a resort town and will be calling in live to discuss her new short-story collection, her experiences at the famed Iowa Workshop, and her life in the US and overseas.
