I'm a huge fan of Max Barry (or Maxx Barry as he also publishes as - anyone know why??).. he's an easier to read and more tongue in cheek version of George Orwell with a definite Douglas Coupland influence. I recommend everyone reads Jennifer Government.... 5/5
e-mail the first paragraph of your new book - or send your 'rant' - or a synopsis of articles you may have written. Or photos of your artwork or craft. e-mail your music files. Let the world see what you can do!
Gone Broadway/street definition: becoming famous, hitting the big time What makes a best seller? What sets published authors apart from the masses and how the hell do they get anyone to even look at their work? How do Mills and Boon manage to sell so many crappy books worldwide?? If anyone from Joan Collin’s sister to Jordan, can get published why cant we??? We should be demanding answers to these and other questions.
Any of you who have sat into the wee small hours staring at the computer screen - with the little black line blinking at you, begging you to start writing something - anything , will know exactly who I’m talking to. Un-published, unheard of, frustrated creative people. This IS the blog for you.
