AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

AI Books at Barnes & Noble: CEO James Daunt is walking back his Today show comments after backlash, insisting B&N doesn’t “endorse or intentionally sell” AI-generated books and says it excludes them from online listings and won’t stock them knowingly—while still saying it could sell AI titles if they’re clearly labeled and there’s proven customer demand. Children’s Publishing Leadership: Simon & Schuster UK appoints Kirsty Bradbury as its new children’s MD. Book-to-Story Buzz: Brandon Sanderson’s sci-fi hit is confirmed for a TV adaptation, and Marvel-linked teams are also moving on more comic-to-screen plans. Publishing Industry Tools: SEO expert Gerrid Smith launches new books focused on legal, medical, and AI visibility. Culture & Media Loss: EastEnders and Blake’s 7 actor Michael Keating dies at 79, prompting tributes tied to his long-running roles. Community Book Life: A new Lake Cowichan bookstore, Brewberry Books, opens after years of online sales.
