SlushPile Hell

One grumpy literary agent, a sea of query fails, and other publishing nonsense.

Aug 8 2011

This will end by this being the book that every house has in their living room on the coffee table, book shelf or half open on the couch. The book every pastor and synogogue will have on display across the world. I would be sadly dissapointed if this book didn’t sell 100 billion copies in the first 5 years.

Hmmm … 100 billion copies for a world population of 7 billion. So, each and every person in the world is going to buy 14 copies? Seems reasonable.

    Pffft, underachiever. A book this epic, s/he should be aiming for 200 billion.
