GUY LeCHARLES GONZALEZ is an old/new media pragmatist; (still a) publishing optimist, and a library advocate. Professionally, he is the Director, Content & Digital Product Development for Media Source / Library Journals, LLC, and the former Director of Programming & Business Development for Digital Book World. He’s a published poet and journalist, former National Poetry Slam champion, and recently self-published an echapbook of poetry entitled Handmade Memories. Personally, he’s a father, husband, poet, writer, reader, long-suffering NY Mets and Jets fan, and prefers Pumpkin and India Pale Ales, Jim Beam, and Dona Paula Shiraz Malbec. The combination is wonderfully complicated and quite simple, really.
