Just a quick update post.

YAY!!!

Sorry if I split your eardrums ;). Scrap: Salvaging a Family is a Finalist in the Next Generation Indie Book Awards.

I think it’s very interesting that another of the memoir finalists is Deborah Sosin’s book Escape Velocity. She wrote it in 70 70-word memoir pieces. So that makes two finalist books that were heavily influenced by flash/micro writing. It would be interesting to look at memoirs from previous years and see if flash or micro popped up in that field. I kind of doubt there was much.

Just ordered Deborah’s book!

Remember that if you want to order an ebook of Scrap, it needs to be through the publisher, not Amazon. You can get a paperback either place.
