You may, or may not, remember that Noontime Book Chat is moving here to The Printed Page in February. Well there have been a couple of changes to NBC. These changes were made with both participants and visitors in mind. Please visit the blog post here. I’m very excited about the format change as I believe it allow for additional co-hosting opportunities.
