So.... I am another year older. Still none the wiser. I have decided not to post any more of The Tramp Steamer here until the fat cats at some publishing house cross my palms with silver...
I did recently rediscover my first attempt at a novel hiding on a three and half inch floppy. So as soon as I discover a computer still able to retrieve the archaic files I'll stick it up here... It's called Once Was King and is a factious biograghy... I think there's about 32000 words or so....
Anyway I now plan to spend the next few days in blissful oblivion...
Oh and in typical prolific and optimistic style I am already on to chapter three of The Tramp Steamer's sequel....
If in the coming days I offend anyone... My apologies in advance...
Kind regards,
Neil D Campbell

ReplyDeletecool I'll give to you and you can stick it in... 'Carry On Writing' is my next project
ReplyDeleteI started writing when i was a lot younger. The first book I realized was a play on all the stupid kid movies I had seen. Feeling embarrassed I stopped writing it. The second thing I started writing was a biography. I was writing it as i was doing it. Sort of became tedious and frustrating. Again I became embarrassed because I was writing about people around me and I was afraid they would see it and laugh at me for being so dramatic. Now I just journal to myself. But I'm not crazy because Its on paper and not out loud downtown.
ReplyDeleteI trust you had a great birthday. I hope some publsihing house gives you a contract and a nice big advance all wrapped up in shiny paper with a bow. x
