Ron Charles interview


Bookslut has an interview with Ron Charles from the Washington Post. Ron is Deputy Editor of the Post’s Book World and you’ll also find him on Twitter, but his daughter doesn’t like the idea of her father tweeting. (We follow Ron on Twitter.)

My wife finds it really distracting! My daughter has refused to become a follower of mine; she thinks it’s completely ridiculous that I do this. It came out of that NBCC meeting. I had no idea [before that] what it was at all. I’d just gotten on Facebook to follow my daughter. Twitter sounded absurd, you know, “I had pork and beans tonight,” who cares about this? But [at the NBCC meeting I learned] that professionally you can direct people back to your own site or your reviews, so I decided I’d give it a try.
