Radio Shelf Pleasure

Posted April 14, 2014 by Whitney in Uncategorized / 2 Comments

Last week via an email I became aware of an awesome new program for book lovers, Shelf Pleasure.  I could rattle on about what a neat concept this idea is but I typically become incoherent so instead, below is the information provided to me.
** First Show Airing April 16th! *** Read the press release ***

Shelf Pleasure Radio is a weekly show for women who love to read. The show presents unique show segments (high-profile author interviews, the latest publishing news & trends, fun reading features etc.) that will engage women bibliophiles. Kristen (book editor/Shelf Pleasure co founder) and Liz (book publicist with Liz D Publicity & Promotions/Book’d in Burbank lit event organizer/veteran book club leader) are deeply involved in the book community. Their collective experiences, expertise, and industry contacts create a show that’s not just informative, but also a bookish good time.

More on your hosts:
