Welcome Back, Motoko!

By Neal 

Sarah’s already discussed the contents of this morning’s NYT piece on Harry Potter, and Gawker has traced the Times‘ fixation on what Potter means for the industry, so all that’s left for me to do is note that, although it’s shared with Julie Bosman, this is Motoko Rich‘s first byline in nearly four months…and we’re looking forward to seeing more of her on the publishing beat in the future. (But we don’t want to see any less of Bosman, either. I know; we have conflicting desires…or do we? Work it out for me, Bill Keller!)
