Words from YOU!

OK, I know about the interesting literary items from the past and present. At least I know what I find interesting. Now here's the thing. What do you find interesting? What would you like to see as a book? See the link to my email? It's over there in the upper right hand corner. Yeah, that's it. Click on it and tell me what you want to see. I mean, what kind of book would you run out and buy? Maybe a picture book of people in strange places? No, how about a book about Pygmy Eskimos who emigrated to Australia? Well, whatever that secret dream book is, let me know about it and I will post it here. No pornography or illegal stuff...that's not my style, plus, its a cop out. That stuff is way too simple and crude. I'm talking about the creative, odd, unusual, fresh or unique books that would fill a hole in the literary world. It may take a bit to draw in the ideas. I will keep it all anonymous, I will post a first name if you give it to me. If you worry about your email address (don't worry I won't keep it) you can make a temporary one through mail.com or Yahoo. Now that you're off the hook I know you'll come up with some great ideas. If you want credit, that's ok too. Just create a mock up of your book cover. Use any simple graphic program. (you can download free ones like PhotoFiltre which is easy to use) Like its been said before, if you ask they will come....or was that build? Whatever it was, they shall come.
I'll start it off with my idea. How about a book about disgruntled kittens? It could be a nice coffee table book full of fluffy little disgruntled kittens. You say the idea's been taken by other animals? Do rabbits and bull dogs hold the license to bad moods? So what, kittens make great subject matter, so there!

Great idea! I'm working on my idea right now. Uh, you won't steal it will you?

Yeah, I'm going right out and make a book to cover every idea I get. Sure, it'll be a lot of work, but hey, its worth it. I say this as I procrastinate on my latest novel which I started 10 years ago. At this rate I'll get the rest of the books finished by the time I'm 80. Here's to longevity! ;)

Can we leave our ideas here? I want to remain incognito.

Sure but the best ones come with graphics. Also, you can create a temporary email address at mail.com just for incognito purposes. Hmmm, it must be a big top secret book you have there, James.
