Bookmarks: Guerilla Marketing

This Little Free Library at 3405 Florecita Drive in Altadena invites you to sit down and browse. Sweet, isn't it? I exclaimed out loud when I saw this one, and I didn't even have Boz with me to mask the fact that I was talking to myself. The concept of the Little Free Library is "take a book, leave a book." The "Florecita Farm Little Free Library," erected in honor of Elmer E. Nielson, had a bunch of good ones.

This is the only one in Altadena listed with littlefreelibrary.org, though there might be an unofficial Altadena branch. I promise to investigate. I'll also be checking out the Pasadena branches, as I continue my marketing plan.


In other news, you may remember Anita Davison, the British novelist who kicked off the Saturday Bookmarks series with her book, Royalist Rebel. She invited me to post on her blog, so I wrote about the concept of networking as giving, and the strange circumstances that introduced the two of us. And here's Anita's review of Camelot & Vine, on Historical Novel Review.
