One of our all-time favorite authors, Alice Walker is about to hit a tablet device near you. The Color Purple—and ten more of her books—will be released (finally!) as an ebook, by Open Road Integrative Media, with personal extras like interviews and photographs.

 Walker told the Associated Press that her reason to go digital was due to "a sense, lacking often in publishing, of connectedness with the author, of all of us being in this adventure together, wanting it to be the best."

For those of you who need a Walker fix immediately, check out this GalleyCat video of Walker talking about her life's work or just go hug all your old tear-stained paperback versions—and read them one last, wonderful time (cry, sniffle).
