HOPELESS BOOKS UNINC.: Interview with me and Andy Nowicki...

... about the HOPELESS reprint of Andy's THE DOCTOR AND THE HERETIC:

I could do without the commenters' tired, smug claim that anyone writing today automatically stinks (not that they've likely tried reading any of it since their ill-advised foray into Dave Eggers or whatever godawful thing people who don't know anything about current literature think represents current literature) ... I'll bet Gogol got sick of hearing that too.

HOME OF SATIRE

If you have to live in the 21st century, then you might as well examine that disgusted feeling deep in your gut, because we're all going to die and that's the only fact. (Time and matter actually might be illusions, smartass.) All Ebooks and POD paperbacks, because I don't have any money. And look, you don't need to buy a special Kindle device. You can read ebooks on any computer. So if you can read this, you can read that. AND WE NOW HAVE PAPERBACKS. Have fun, worm food!

* THIS IS HOW TO READ KINDLE BOOKS WITHOUT BUYING A KINDLE DEVICE

So you wrote a book, huh? And you can't get it published, eh? If you're nonetheless certain that it's brilliantly written (THOSE BASTARDS!) and you're willing to settle for the companionship of a wacky, rag-tag, suicidally reckless crew that can't even afford goddamned paper, you may well find a home for it here.

Hopeless Books is mainly interested in publishing fiction (by which I DO NOT mean your thinly veiled trust-fund baby autobiography where there's a funeral and some schoolboyish attempts to show how good you are at describing things, you fucks), but if you've written something nonfictional that's well-written AND hilarious, interesting, or controversial, please send it my way.

Genre fiction is welcome, including (I sup-pose) litfic. Who knows, someone might eventually write a good litfic novel. Monkeys, in a room, typewriters, etc.

There will probably be no Nobel prizes. Sorry.
