I wish I could figure out what crazy!author's book was actually supposed to be about.
Himself. It's his favorite subject, and would be yours, too, if you weren't actually part of the problem. (The problem being people who don't think he should be everyone's favorite subject.)
After you read this, I suspect you’ll be saying, “How the fuck did we get in this position? WHOSE FAULT IS THIS?!!”
And the answer will be the guy who signed him.
As an aside, I'm kind of pissed that S&S gave such a supremely shitty writer a 65k advance.
INORITE!
I was like, fuck you, dude. FUCK YOU.
I kind of want to take up a collection to send his agent a nice arrangement of sedatives.
Happy Birthday, Jilli!
We had a pot luck and November birthday celebration today. Lovely cake and one of my co-workers made the c.i. chocolate cupcakes.
Yum.
Screw that; send 'em to every hard-working writer who produces and sells books AND works a FT day job, and just read about his 65K advance...
He sounds like this guy: [link]
How to SUCCEED, I'm pretty sure.
In other words, WINNING. Awesome.
I read the "About" on his blog, and he apparently is trying to eliminate sleep from his schedule. Good luck with that.
