Borders is liquidating

It is official, unfortunately and catastrophically: Borders bookstores will be closing their doors. It looks like this will be happening in the next couple months. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/business/7658970.html

I was so sad to hear this. I grew up shopping there and for a year I enjoyed great success selling books to their customers (my novel) at signings.

Goodbye, Borders. ...Now I only wonder how long Barnes & Noble can survive. Or, will they sink too?

NOOOOO!!!!! That's my FAVORITE BOOKSTORE!!! :'( Now I'm really sad...

I guess the only good that comes of this is that there will be TONS of books on sale within the next couple of months, but I am really put down by this. I LOVE borders... more than Barnes and Nobles, for sure... (even though I like that bookstore too). Oh, that is just so sad.
