Book Clubbing II
Just to make my point even further, I was just looking at a list of debut fiction that recently sold, and here’s another that sold as a pre-empt–in other words, an auction was about to be held, but one publisher came in with a high bid right out of the box, pre-empting the auction. What that means is that the book sold for a lot more money than most debut authors get.
It’s by Susan Breen and it’s called THE FICTION CLASS. The book is populated by a teacher and the offbeat members of a creative writing workshop she leads.
A ongoing class is a kind of a club, right?
The author is a writing teacher.
It must be cool to have a novel written about the writing class you’ve taken.
But hey, there really was a Broadway musical written about the songwriting class I took when I was trying to make it as a composer and lyricist for Broadway.
I talked about that in my last newsletter. You can subscribe by going to www.GetAnAgentNow.com.
