In this first Litopia After Dark of 2008, we’re live on Ustream and there’s an opportunity watch the Podcast being made and make comments during the programme.
This week the panel discuss Chuck Norris. What? Has Chuck Norris decided being an action hero is no longer fulfilling and penned his own romance novel? Fortunately not. The discussion revolves around a book called “The Truth About Chuck Norris: 400 facts about the World’s Greatest Human” and the resulting law suit. Also, the far more serious issue of Books and the Landfill. What can we do about the environmental impact of the publishing industry’s wasteful sale or return policy? And could e-submissions be a small step forward towards better practice? And finally, Writers Conferences. Could they be a face to face opportunity for the unpublished writer? The panel discuss the pros and cons of speed dating Agents. This episode’s guests are Donna Ballman, Dave Bartram and Amanda Lees.
