If you don't like my answer, tuff shit.
I'm not here to win your approval or get fake forum love.
I am a published journalist. I have connections and that chick has been seeking approval from the inside for a long time.
She may write a kick ass book. She may go the Morgana route and publish it herself but she has NO publisher.
When a person has a publisher and is writing a legit book a la Pam Des Barres et al, you have to keep it under wraps. You cannot put sample chapters up on My Space.
The fact that some of you are so gullible is almost funny.
I'm not knocking her writing a book but it is not a professional effort nor is it being commissioned by anyone.
She should just tell the truth and say she is TRYING to get a book published. She never will because she is not a celebrity. Even celebrities have trouble getting deals.
Also, I have no intention of telling a bunch of strangers my name or whatnot.
That is my right. This is a message board.
I do not share my shit.
Now I know you're just trying to start personal shit with her for whatever reason. Don't know why, don't care.
Published journalist or not, there's no way you can find out what's going on in any publisher's office unless you work there yourself. They don't just give out information to anybody that calls. You must think we're pretty gullible if you think we're going to just take your word for information you can't possibly have.
I don't know why you think she's got to explain herself to you or to any other critics. If time goes by and Quennie's book never comes out, she'll be exposed, and on the same token, when it does come out, she'll be proven to be the genuine article which we already know she is. I'll buy it just like every body else on here will and I'll get her to autograph (stamp) it for me one day too.
To get a book published you need an agent. The agent shops the proposal or treatment plus sample chapters. If someone bites, a deal is struck and that is not a secret. When a publisher does a deal they always announce it to the inside book media.
When a book proposal is making the rounds several people view it, know it is being shopped and share within the various companies.
This woman has no book deal. If she did she would simply say who her publisher is. End of story.
Served Roger Daltry? Girl is straight trippin' boo!
Having a publisher is like having a record deal. Either you do or you don't.
If she actually had a deal she wouldn't need to come here and spill her guts- she'd be busy writing and finishing her work and getting her plan together with her publisher.
Morgana, who's book is great, has no publisher- she self published and is on Amazon.
When Pamela Des Barres got her deal back in the 1980's- I'm With The Band was published in 1986 people!! That's 23 years ago. There had never been a book like hers and she had guys like Don Johnson who were HUGE TV stars.
No offense to John E. but he isn't exactly a big enough star on his own to get a book contract for some chick that claims to know his personal shit.
The man was married.
He died an awful death.
Some of you will believe anything. You give the real people shit and back up the fakes.
I'm done.
Fucking stupid.
Anyone with any knowledge of the publishing world know I'm speaking the real protocol to getting a book published.
I will say it again- when you get a book deal it is PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE and the media is alerted.
