Show your support for self-published writers and sign the "Self-Published Manifesto" by Abby Slovin.

We all know that the publishing industry is changing. Many writers pursue self-publishing as a choice: to have more creative control, reach a niche audience more directly, or because they simply love having a greater role in the process of publishing a book.

Sign the Manifesto for yourself, or a friend who is a self-published author, or simply to show your solidarity with this growing trend:

Dear readers, I recently received a question from a new reader about whether there are novels out there similar to Letters in terms of its themes, subject matter, or writing style.

I thought this might be a good question to pose to the group. Even though I have my own ideas, its more helpful to hear feedback from readers who have read and enjoyed the novel.

Thank you for your feedback!

Dear readers, I'm happy to announce a new project of mine that will appear monthly on the Dunce Academy blog, called Jack and the Brick Wall, which tells the story of a recent college graduate searching for work. The official announcement from the Dunce Academy appears below (including a link to the site). Interested readers can reply to this message to be put on the email list for all new posts and more information can be found on my website: http://www.abbyslovin.com/jack-and-th...

Hope to see you there!

From the Dunce Academy:
It is with great pleasure that the Dunce Academy announces the arrival of a new Dunce to our team. Jack will be writing on our fine little blog directly from New York’s Avenue A. His posts will appear every first Friday of the month and include discussions on his never-ending search for work and constant tweaks to his cover letter, his interactions with some of New York’s finest and quirkiest, and such observations as how “Call of Duty” enhances your ability to survive in the real world. Jack is down on his luck, without a job or a girlfriend, but he continues to be optimistic…sort of. Stay tuned for more from Jack. First post on March 9th!
