Have you noticed how trends change, one year skirts are short the next down to your ankles, wide leg pants then skin tight? This is true in publishing as well. When one author/ subject/ style makes a splash, every editor, agent, publishing house jumps on the bandwagon. Do readers?
As a writer this is of great interest to me. I have always believed a good book, well written, would sell regardless of genre or "in-factor". Am I wrong?
I have eclectic tastes when it comes to reading, attracted as much by style as content. I like romance, humor, sex, intrigue, pirates and aliens from outer- space. I want to feel the pages. Make me love or despise a character, but make me FEEL something. But, that's me. What about you?
So put on your thinking caps and tell me what you think!
The first category will be Trends in Publishing/ too much sex or not enough?
ALSO . . . a new chapter of Tom's Story will appear tomorrow morning on Some Write it Hot 2. You can click the naked guy on the right.
Thank God! I expected to hit 40K or better this weekend, unfortunately I have to take the PC in for some service tomorrow. Hopefully that won't slow me down much.
As most of you know I am stuck with dial-up here on the dark side of the moon. No one seems to care about us rural folks. Sure you can get broadband via satellite, but who has that kind of dough? Not me. To that end I got an "air card" unfortunately (again) I need new drivers installed in my PC to accommodate it.
I wasted 3 hours today when I should have been writing trying to get the d@#$ thing to install. Everyone said it would be SOOOOOOO easy. Not on the dark side of the moon.
Sorry to everyone who checked this morning for a new chapter of Tom's Story. I did write it...in my sleep...between work and NaNo, I just forgot to post it. Thanks for the reminders! Chapter 11 is up now on my Blogger site. You know the drill-- Home page--Free Reads--Click!
Y'all have a Happy Thanksgiving! I'll be writing.
Hugs and kisses guys!
