We’re delighted to announce that Bill Seitz has joined the DailyLit team as Chief Technology Officer. Bill will be a driving force in expanding our technological capabilities, allowing us to innovate (as one publisher recently suggested) “as far as our imaginations lead us.”
Here’s the press release. Welcome aboard, Bill!

I’m just back from the London Book Fair, and it’s clear that the tide is turning with publishers much more willing to pursue new digital initiatives. Last year publishers were open to listening but much more cautious about moving forward. This year, something had changed. Publishers are now ready to participate. It was a great fair for DailyLit!

We’d love to find out how our readers are reading DailyLit and where in the world you’re reading. Let us know, and we’ll post pictures of you reading your installments. Here’s Albert on the Motherlode chairlift at Park City, Utah, reading away!

We are excited that we can now feature best-selling and/or well-reviewed contemporary titles on DailyLit. These titles are copyrighted, and we charge a fee so that we can pay publishers, authors and ourselves :) Most of these titles have free sample installments so you can first decide whether you like a book — you only pay if you want to continue reading. We are adding a broad range of titles including motherhood (e.g., Smotherhood), humor (e.g., Gullible’s Travels), science fiction (e.g., In Fury Born), war (e.g., From Baghdad with Love), romance (e.g., Heiress) with many more titles to come before the end of the year.
P.S. Not to worry — public domain and creative commons titles will remain free.

Thanks to the many readers who have contributed feature suggestions, book requests and text corrections. These help us make DailyLit better. In fact, based on a suggestion we just rolled out a feature that let’s you view installments online for those cases where an installment has been blocked by spam filters. We have also been adding books based on requests, including parts of the King James Bible. Keep the feedback coming!

DailyLit now has a blog. We will use it to post announcements about the service and (hopefully) to receive feedback from readers. In case you are wondering about all the earlier blog posts, these used to be on the About page.
