Still, I have to admit, I get a little jealous. It's hard for an author to get anything close to that kind of attention. Unless your main character's last name is "Potter." But if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. I say. Which is why I'm going to get to work on a proposal for American Literary Idol. Now, I'm aware that the British have been doing something similar with the Booker Prize, a Survivor -like contest with a voting procedure so drawn out that the Democratic Party's seems concise and efficient by comparison. And gather.com/Borders/Simon&Schuster and Amazon/Penguin each had contests for undiscovered talent recently. But frankly, I think America is hungry for more. Much more. Comments (1) Leave comment
