The Self-Publishing Journey

I want to thank you, reader, for taking a chance on me and buying this self-published novel.

There are a lot of reasons why people self-publish a novel, including that the book is fucking terrible, or the author is a shit writer. I’ll allow you to be the judge of that as it relates to this novel. But as a lover of books and as someone who believes that even bad books are good because they tell us Read more of this blog post »

Jane Hartsock and 1 other person liked Scott Reisfield's review of Triangulum:
Triangulum by Subodhana Wijeyeratne

Salman Rushdie
“The word 'translation' comes, etymologically, from the Latin for 'bearing across'. Having been borne across the world, we are translated men. It is normally supposed that something always gets lost in translation; I cling, obstinately to the notion that something can also be gained.”
