    I recently launched http://www.bookfaironline.net, the first international book fair on the web, available all year round, no need to travel across the hemisphere. And yet, I find an incredible resistance among the publishing world, famous for being conservative in many respects and slow to accept changes.
    I know it is early days but – please – whoever is out there working in publishing come and have a look at the site. Send me your comments. Thank you

    Good work Ngunjiri. This is an effective supplement to information on books and book review away from the news paper. With this effective tool, we can easily refer back to it. Good work. Your contact please? You are a resource person to me.

    Dear Ngunjiri,
    I have bumped into this blog. However, I am very excited that it exists. It is great and innovative for you to take literary matters this far. You have created a forum for literary interaction, sharing and promoting creative talents. I will always visit this blog to catch up with the latest in the literary world. I love books, especially poetry.

    Mr. Ngunjiri, I do not know how you had access to my address, but you are up to something bigger than ourselves. Keep it up. The review of the House Help story made me want to buy and read the book. VS
