Happiness as a shared social value and guarantee of a renewed relationship of trust between citizens and Institutions is the theme of Blumm Prize Storysharing, a literature prize intended for aspiring writers under 40, sponsored by the Agency Pomilio Blumm in cooperation with Rubbettino Editore.

In addition to Franco Pomilio and Florindo Rubbettino other leading figures in the literary, academic, journalistic and communication world will be part of the jury, such as semiologist Maria Pia Pozzato, Iranian bestseller writer Sahar Deljiani and Stefano Andreoli, blogger of Spinoza.it.

Blumm Prize Storysharing is part of a wider system of artistic and cultural promotion which includes also an international art award on the theme of transparency and a photographic award on the theme of civic participation. According to modalities of participation, which will be soon made public, it is possible to use digital formats. Objective: to give space to the many innovative forms of storytelling that in the use of interactive languages find the best way of expression.

And thinking about the success of eBooks, Russ Grandinetti, vice president of Amazon Kindle Content, in an recent interview at the International Journalism Festival in Perugia, said that "the transition to digital publishing will probably be the biggest change we will see in our time" also thanks to the fact that "it is now possible to publish eBooks on any topic in one day, within a few hours, and to come out in the market with the exact titles of interest to the public in that precise moment.
