When we revealed Newt Gingrich’s status as one of Twitter’s most popular authors yesterday, we put in a call to his new publisher to find out if they will reach out to this influential digital audience.
The former House speaker scored a book deal with Regnery Publishing yesterday, and it turns out his publisher has a growing eBook strategy: “We will have Kindle, Nook, and Sony editions available on the day of release,” a spokesperson told GalleyCat. “We’ve been broadening that end of our business.”
Gingrich raked third on our unscientific literary census of Twitter via TweepSearch. Television host and author Chelsea Handler topped the list with 1,939,114 followers.
