Blogging 'bout Books

Howdy all, in Cambodia we have recently published our first Books in Print, and I'm doing a series of posts mapping out the local literary world.

In a warm, humid climate, getting stuff digitized is a good idea for backup. I'm just happy to see people read in any format.

Cambodians love their phones, having gone directly to mobile due to lack of landlines. If you want to deliver digital literature, you could try poetry via phones.
