At the peak of English literature, a very popular format was to issue books in periodic serials. Each month a magazine might carry a new chapter from the work of a great author such as Charles Dickens. Attitude Media is reviving this technique with the publication of "Life Changing Advice from People You Should Know", the second book in the Living Sanely series. (For more information about the first book in this series, "Living Sanely In An Insane World: Philosophy for Real People", which was published in conventional hardcover format, click here.)
"Life Changing Advice from People You Should Know" will be published in 66 parts, a new section sent via email to subscribers once a week. Each section contains a quote that can change your life, as well as a 1-2 page biography, created by author John F. Groom, to describe the person behind the quote.
