Chyld- Wrong. Write something short and I'll put it in the final draft if I can.

Floppy Disk- One of the reasons PA is such a scam is that they demand just about all your rights for 7 goddamn years. So, if this thread stays up its like publishing the book online and they'd be PIST. It's kind of like if I made up a song and sold it to a record company, theey'd be pissed if it was being distributed online.

I have no problem with DofL being online, but the publisher would if they found out and I dont want Cheffy getting in trouble, so the thread must be hidden.

Also, received confirmation from PA today that they received the manuscript and the author biography for Lance N. D'escimo. What this means is that they'll check out the book to see if its the right length and if it looks publishable and they'll get back to me in 2-4 weeks. Keep your fingers crossed, this is indeed the most perilous part of a most dangerous game.

In any event we'll always have the pride of knowing we wrote the worst novel ever, right?

Damn straight. And hey, if it doesn't go through, you could put your final edit up on Jelly Pufflemur so we can read it in all it's glory. But hopefully it won't come to that. I would love to have a printed novel version on my bookshelf.

Sime- An excellent point, if something happens to the printing idea I'll put it all up online. I had a great gag with Slade when I told him that now that the book was finished I was going to ask him to edit into a decent novel. I think he's still hiding in a closet and rocking back and forth.

That would explain why he's been repeating the word 'leeks' for the last few hours.

Dar! I probably won't be able to add Dark Elves in time cos I don't have regular access to the internet now. I will give it its own thread when its finished though. If it ever is.

And leeks might not just be published, it might be considered a masterpiece someday. Finnegans Wake by James Joyce is little more than a random collection of words as well, and literary critics are still wanking over that.

haha that would be interesting to see. I can imagine college professors having to draw up charts to show the relation between gramma melt, the ponies, and the convict.

I live in Brisbane... oh, hope... I see.

If leeks is published, tell me all about the publication details and the cover art so I can run down to a bookstore and disturb the patrons by laughing heartily.

If it's published, do you think Books-A-Million would order a copy for me? I really want a copy to have forever.
