This week on The Virtual Book Channel.

A month ago we launched The Virtual Book Channel as a way to help writers with new books find readers during an otherwise awful time for publishing. And while it continues to be a work very much in progress, we’re happy to have thus far featured 55 shows—you can take a look here at the conversations (and more!) that have we’ve aired.
