Oh man, I just got an e-mail from an author we rejected from EDF because of a dead narrator. First, we get TONS of dead narrator pieces from beginning authors and it’s almost always a cop out. If you’re a master writer, you can do this… but this guy wasn’t.
So what does he write back to us? “My friends like it, so screw you!”
Wow. And I bet his Mom thinks he’s cool too.
Sometimes I wanna go all Mamatas on these guys, but then I think… what’s the point? Guys like this don’t wanna learn. They know it all already…
