Eat Well at BEA For the second year, we’re delighted to announce that we’ll publish a printed daily filled with Lunch-style coverage of the convention on every day of the show. Publishers Lunch will *not* be e-mailed during the three days of BEA; to pick a copy of Convention Lunch you’ll need to visit the booth of one of our terrific sponsors. Like daily Lunch, it will be available every day around mid-morning, with fresh up-to-the-minute writing; quantities will be limited, so make sure to note the following destinations on your schedule. And please thank them when you drop by […]

New Deals We wound up sharing 19 new deals with Marketplace members during the course of the day yesterday, and after the weekly Deal Lunch went out we logged another five brand-new ones, including a reporter’s book on the millions of women who like guns, a search for the Tasmanian tiger, more yoga for babies, and an executive’s formula for getting rid of meetings — with more reported live during the day every day.
