AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Bookselling: Anne Carson’s Nobel Prize has sent demand soaring: Indigo reported a 10,325% jump in sales the day after the announcement, while Calgary Public Library logged hundreds of new holds. Comics Publishing: Blumhouse and IDW unveiled new comics based on M3GAN, The Purge and Happy Death Day at New York Comic Con, expanding film franchises into print. AI and Authorship: “Human-authored” labels are gaining ground as publishers respond to concerns about AI-generated books. Market Watch: UK book revenue rose 1.5%, with fiction driving international growth, while the Frankfurt Book Fair’s discussions highlighted exports, AI and travel disruption amid concerns about weak sales and declining literacy. Independent Bookshops: Bookshop.org’s audiobook launch gives indie stores a way to earn the full profit from audiobook sales.
