David Ayers Posted October 2, 2003 Report Posted October 2, 2003 Not only that but the wedding photos came today. I'll be posting them soon... Hurrah! Quote
ghost of miles Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 Thanks for giving us would-be authors hope, David. I'm working on starting one soon myself (no publisher yet), so you've set a great example. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 Congrats, Ayers...what's it about? I was told that question drives authors nuts. Quote
kenny weir Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 David, I may have missed it somewhere along the line, but ... what's your book about? Fiction, jazz, biography? Quote
JazzKitten Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 Congratulations! Please do tell us more about your new book! JK Quote
David Ayers Posted October 3, 2003 Author Report Posted October 3, 2003 Well I have to spoil it all by saying what it is. This is my third academic book on modernist literature. This one is called Modernism: A Short Introduction and will be published by Blackwell in about 8 months. It is aimed at students and general readers. Knowing what publishers are like I won't earn a penny, but I am a professional academic and so I do it for the love (!). I don't think it will have any appeal to anyone who isn't actually studying this stuff so I am not going to suggest that you all put in your pre-order. Save your money for the Mulligan Mosaic! Quote

JSngry Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 Congrats, David! Will Volume 4 be about the collected wit and wisdom of jazz bulletin boards? Quote
David Ayers Posted October 3, 2003 Author Report Posted October 3, 2003 Well I am trying not to think about the next one too much. At the moment it's goodbye book hello beer! Quote
JSngry Posted October 3, 2003 Report Posted October 3, 2003 At the moment it's goodbye book hello beer! Are you a professional academic or a professional student? Quote
