All right, Blog-o-Sphere, it's time to use your force for mighty and goodness in the name of your favorite, lesser-known authors!
I officially declare the week of December 10th to be "Take Back the Endcaps Week" a.k.a. TB2. The day of December 10th is "Face Your Book Day".
Thus, the week of December 10th, go to a bookstore, and choose your favorite, lesser-known author. Move their books from obscurity over to an endcap, (maybe even the tasty ones at the front of the store) and don't let the "man" get you down.
On December 10th itself, turn the spine-out book of your favorite, lesser-known author "face-out", so that the cover of the book with tasty graphic goodness and all the lovely eye-catchiness that marketing departments vie for occurs.
Participate in both or one, depending on your courageousness.
Also, blog about which author you chose, and <i>warum</i>, as the cops say in Deutschland. (That's "Why" for all you unDeutschlicious).
Alert the blog-o-sphere! 'Tis time for a new book-related holiday!
