Org, have you ever tried to write a novel, or even had one published? What was it about?

Have you got a book in you?

I wrote a story I want to make a novel out of. Can't be arsed though.

my friend has got a book in him & he's trying to get published. He's getting some great reviews and is looking for the right agent

check out his short story "Forever Girl" in the Hobart journal, it's funny

I got three quarters-ish through 2 novels but my attention span tends to run out and look for something else, one day I will finish one.

I hope he survives the operation ... I for him

I'm writing a non-fictional book on quasi-mediated interaction and the presentation of one's personality


[sorry 2 the one I stole that from, I think it is the funkiest title for a non-comical essay or book]

he's been published before I believe.

oh

CC is the resident org novel writer
think he said another one is coming out soon.

'War and Peace II-Rostovs' Revenge' It got poo pooed by Alan Yentob and thus Mansion House pulled out of the contract.

I think about it a lot... but I don't ever DO it.

I'm attempting a new project entitled, 'Ernest stop quoting Prince'. A Wilde-esquian affair about a young man trying to fit into high society yet who is disgraced when he falls for the charms of a dandy funkster from Minneapolis.
