Make books not wii

Thanks Eva for the link to Maureen Johnson's blog post Sell the Girls. I've never read her books but Johnson's comments on the alleged 'crisis in boys' reading' are worth a look. Apparently there's a dire need for male authors and 'boy' books, according to the New York literary scene. Are they kidding? 
I would weigh into the argument but not tonight Josephine, my brain is fried. Forget the readers for a moment, this writing lark is exhausting.
