04/18/2005: "What does it take?"


Did you ever wonder what it takes to write a book? What are the criteria for submiting a work? Me too.

Looking around today, I have stumbled across a call for submissions for Tor Books - the very same Tor Books of the never ending Conan series that was very popluar in the 80s and helped launch Boris Vallejo's carreer.

It's pretty interesting how precise the specifications are, even for a subgenre like paranormal romance... is that like Ghost? Uh, I think I'm out of my element.
