I don’t do these often. If you blink you might miss it.

I went to the bookstore last night with my critique group. Checked out the new releases section. All the male authors’ books were bigger (i.e. taller) than the books by female authors. I kid you not.

Maybe it was because most of the female authors were women’s fiction/romance? I’m not counting the larger trade paperbacks, just the mass market paperbacks.

Really, go check it out at your local bookstore and tell me if I’m off my rocker. Paperback new releases. That’s my rant.
