Touchstone, a Simon & Schuster imprint, has created a new cultural website called Glommable.
This digital space will feature both original content and “best-of” pieces from internet personalities, high-profile creatives, and authors. At the moment, readers will find items such as a video interview between web comics creator Allie Brosh and actress Felicia Day, artwork by BoJack Horseman animator Lisa Hanawalt, and a “Which Indie Press Are You?” quiz.
According to the press release, this website will “offer recurring features, such as the ‘Glom O’ The Week’ (which will highlight the work of a favorite web creator), ‘2 Glom or Not 2 Glom’ (which will give readers the dish on whether a recent TV show, movie, album, or book is worth glomming onto); ‘Glomtacular’ (an Internet personality’s confession of the pop culture media he or she digests), ‘Lit Wiz’ (a weekly rotation of literary polls, quizzes, and book battles), slideshows with shareable quotes, and much more.” Both Touchstone and Simon & Schuster Digital will work together to run it.
