"For crying out loud." "Not a damn thing has been done."

Wow, what an attitude to have. Quite frankly, it stinks.

I've seen spam on international news sites, remain for days and days, and you complain that it isn't cleared up within 12 hours here, on a non-profit writing site, managed by a few volunteers? Quite remarkable.

The spam reports will go to more than one person in future, which should help.

I like to think that authors are a little more particular / discerning, about which publisher they sign up with.

Who in their right mind (unless broke), would want to sign up with a company, everyone in the industry considers a homogenous McPublisher (Amazon)?

Publishers tend to be specialists in certain genres, to try and be all encompassing, has fail written all over it.

I seriously can't see it ever happening. Fun article all the same, the usual from the NY Times!

Excellent work Gav! =d>

Congratulations to the winners, and thank you everyone for taking part.

Well done Alan, I meant to write a note on your entry, but forgot. Must be the aluminum pans

Welcome Shelide.

You certainly are a creative soul.

"Beatrice and Virgil," Yann Martel. It's one of his follow up books after the success of "The life of Pi."

Interesting read so far, a few chapters in. Talented writer, that's for sure.
