Does presentation of a dish alter the way the food tastes? Does it say anything about the cook who made the dish? I am not doing a research on these subjects. I do not wish to get an Ig Nobel Prize for such a research. But replacing the food for a book, the presentation to the writing style and the cook to its author puts things in a different perspective. Would you read a book of an author whose

Hi, Mr. Barnett. I’ve heard that most authors rewrite their manuscripts before getting published. But just how many times does an author rewrite a manuscript to get it to the point where they are pleased with it?

For the first time in over thirty years, I kept a Reading List this year. Thanks to this blog and the widgets and the gidgets they have here, I decided to keep posting and recording the names of the books I read this year(for the most part- I'm sure I forgot to write down some of the books, but I think I got most of them).When you think about a book's influence on you, how a book can be used to ch

JK Rowling earns million a week.

I have never had to think about creating a website to showcase my work since the advent of blogs. Blogs are simple, beautiful and modern. Unfortunately, in the writer's sphere, it looks like the standard way of showcasing your portfolio is through your own website. Since I am in the middle of looking for an agent and a publishing house for one of my manuscripts, my school advisor suggested I set u

Pretty interesting post, from MediaBistro's GalleyCat book blog:Earlier this year, GalleyCat explained how science-fiction author John Scalzi was opening up his blog to guest essayists for a series of posts called "The Big Idea."

(Click image for larger version)There seems to be no role left in book publishing that an author can't outsource. Ghost writers are commonplace.

It all started, so it seems, with an interview Pat over at Pat's Fantasy Hotlist did with David Bilsborough.

It should surprise no one that the Texas House’s own Axis of IDiocy–Reps. Betty Brown (R-Terrell), Leo Berman (R-Tyler), Dwayne Bohac (R-Houston) and Debbie Riddle (R-Tomball) are praising the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in the Crawford case, upholding Indiana’s voter ID law.
From the Axis of IDiocy’s joint press release:
State Representatives Betty Brown, Leo Berman, Dwayne Bohac and Debbie Riddle said today that they were pleased with the court’s decision and hoped that it would bolster support for similar legislation which passed the Texas House but failed in the Senate.
“We would again like to reaffirm our support for legislation that passed through the Texas House of Representatives that would have strengthened voter confidence and helped gu
