For years I attended the annual books convention, now known as BEA -- the get-together where publishers present their upcoming books to booksellers. It's a lot of fun, as many conventions are, but it's also an eye-opener. I remember walking through the doors at my very first books convention and stopping dead-still. There before me was an immense floor full of what might have been an electronics-industry get-together, or a travel-industry convention -- a July 4th-style parade of booths, suits, smiles, posters, and business cards. I remember thinking, "Hey, my English profs didn't tell me about this!"
