Hello, this blog is the genuine article. There will be no articles written by people from Forumboosting.com, Weblogs, Inc., Community Starters, or PayPerPost. I guarantee that I will not hire someone to post comments on my articles. Nor will you see any professionally written blogger articles. You get to see me make genuinely bad grammatical errors, committ factual mistakes, make minor spelling errors, and insult the wrong people by accident.
Right now, I am in the early stages of getting this thing going. This means I will email various people to get them to look at the site and hope people will make comments on it. Very nasty comments are just as important as good comments. Saying, "You Suck" is as important to me as saying this is absolutely great. I would really appreciate feedback from people.
In fact if you think I am an email spam gremlin, go ahead and say it. I am digging into my past for people, many who I know next to nothing about. In fact, I am just as likely to try to contact a friend, as a person who I barely knew like the author and agent who I took the Introduction to Publishing class from at New York University, Sheree Bykofsky who wrote The Complete Idiots Guide to Getting Published, or Alan Zimmerman who at one point had a bookstore in Manhattan, or people who worked at Brooklyn Public Library.
I really enjoyed the magical past when they had science fiction bookstores in Manhattan, now sadly, there is no more Science Fiction Mysteres and More, only one shelf of science fiction books at Forbidden Planet, no Science Fiction Bookshop. In a way, I miss the readings at Dixon Place, or at the cramped little stores now taken over by Barnes and Noble in the real world, and Amazon in cyberspace.
It is rather amazing to me that the only thing you need to get published these days, or publish yourself is a computer.
Anyways, later, I will probably feed this thing into a free website submission engine. The problem with doing that, of course, is you get lots of spam. This means I'll have to create a separate hotmail account for the website submissions, so I won't get overwhelmed with ads for viagra, cialis, Nigerian bankers, found money, free computers, and work at home jobs.
