Four step plan to publication

The Boston Globe’s Alex Beam lays it bare for those wishing to haul their asses into print. I sense an undercurrent of something here, but I have no idea what it is.

2. Blurbs

Blurbs are brief, upbeat endorsements from famous writers (”A roller coaster ride from beginning to end!” – Tom Clancy) who are generally much too busy to read your book, or even take note of your existence. Fret no more!

Blurbings.com offers you 10 blurbs, for free, plus they promise to plant a tree if you do business with them! Here’s my promotional quote they should feel free to use on their site: “Looks fishy, and they don’t answer e-mail.” – Alex Beam, The Boston Globe.

    I once found an anonymous blurb someone gave me. I never could get that awful stain out of the carpet and eventually had to replace the whole thing.

    Oh the stench…like rotten milk and cheap beer.
