Live online: Post your questions for No Impact Man
Colin Beavan was an ordinary New Yorker until he started a little blog called No Impact Man in 2007. As he put it at the time:
A guilty liberal finally snaps, swears off plastic, goes organic, becomes a bicycle nut, turns off his power, and generally becomes a tree-hugging lunatic who tries to save the polar bears and the rest of the planet from environmental catastrophe while dragging his baby daughter and Prada-wearing, Four Seasons?loving wife along for the ride
Since then, Beavan's blog has claimed a large following online, been serialised in a book and turned into a film, which opened in the UK last week. Tomorrow at 1pm he joins us for a live web chat to answer your questions about his eco-experiment…

Chinese woman sues cinema for boring her with adverts
China may not have quite the reputation for litigious eccentricity enjoyed by the US, but that may change with the news that a Beijing woman is suing a local cinema for wasting her time.
Chen Xiaomei claims she was unreasonably treated by the cinema's owners and the distributors of the film she went to see, because she was not warned there would be 20 minutes of adverts prior to the screening of the main feature. She is demanding a full refund (35 yuan), an extra 35 yuan in compensation for emotional damages and a written apology, reports the Xinhua agency…

Charlie Higson's top 10 horror books
As well as making becoming a household name for his work as a writer and actor in comedy shows such as The Fast Show, Charlie Higson has had a parallel and these days just as stellar career as a writer.

These books have now sold more than 1m copies in the UK alone, and have been translated into 24 different languages…

London film festival: what price premieres?
If bookies took bets on the lineup at film festivals, whoops and cheers would be shaking the Guardian HQ this lunchtime. As they don't, the noise is more muted: a smile, a shrug – even a meh.
The programme for this year's London film festival is precisely as predicted: a comprehensive mop-up of the best of the premieres in the five big festivals that will have already happened this year (Sundance, Cannes, Tribeca, Venice, Toronto)…

Hugh Hughes: death, rapture and Anglesey
Rule number one for an interview: know who you're interviewing. Right now, I'm not so sure. Is it Hugh Hughes, who is billed, thrillingly, as an "emerging Welsh multimedia artist"? Or is it Shôn Dale-Jones, Hughes's creator and alter ego? Sometimes, it's hard to see where one man ends and the other begins…

A life in books: Tim Waterstone
Tim Waterstone is explaining to me why he has a problem with the word entrepreneur, a distaste that I've seen ascribed to him on several occasions but find difficult to understand. How else might you describe a man who conjured, out of a redundancy package of a few thousand pounds, a retail operation that changed the face of British bookselling, and with it the nation's high streets? A man who went on to sell the company to the firm that had made him redundant, and then bought it back; and who, after apparently parting ways with his bookshops for good, made four separate attempts to gain control of them once again? This strikes me as almost a dictionary definition of an entrepreneur. So what's the beef?
His quibble, it turns out, has its basis in good manners…
