The Book Marketing Network

For book/ebook authors, publishers, & self-publishers

I'm doing paid work today, ie, NOT writing. Caught a little bit of breakfast television today, an interview with Justin Beiber. I am aware he has either written, or is in the process of writing his autobiography. What I find galling, and I daresay other authors will find galling, is that fact that his book (and how big can his autobiography be? He's 16 years old, for the love of Christ behind the wheel of a souped-up Mustang). What's the book going to say: 'I was born. I went to school/was home schooled (strike out the non-applicable option). I grew my hair in a style that made me resemble a hybrid of a Beatle and a Ramone. Bit ironic, given my musical flavour had none of the influence of the Beatles nor the innovativeness of the Ramones. I recorded a song that makes peoples' ears want to leap off their heads, lemming-like. My testicles eventually descended. The end.'

Oh, the humanity! Oh, it's not fair!

Do I sound like a rancorous old bag? Probably.

Do I need to get back to work? Definitely.

Until next time.
