Should we have had them today?
Is it being sent later this month perhaps?
What, you mean when it's in the shops?
Favouritism I call it. :(
hope my copy is in the post today although I've only just finished reading last months
Congratulations to Jay and AN Others who are in there!
How much does it cost to subscribe just to WN, instead of both, any one know offhand ?
Congratulations Jay for whatever it was, seeing as I don't know, because mine hasn't arrived.
Well done Jay.
Well done Jay!
There were a few in it that had me giggling...
[quote=dorothyd]the really awful thing is, taking off the wrapper and realising you don't know either of the people featured on the front, for a start ... that makes 2 items I won't read straight off![/quote]
Dorothy - there are thousands out there who've never heard of YOU. If you were on the front cover, would you think it acceptable for them to feel the same way?
It also adds to my feeling of 'not enough days, not enough life to get to all the books and people I have never heard of.'
For me those would be the first to read - I want to learn, not confirm existing knowledge.
OK, to prove my point, as it were, I read the Gervase Phinn profile. What did it tell me, other than two pages of how he got into writing? Not much. Third page, repeating advice we all know, read read and work.
These profiles are only of interest to people who know that person's books. There is little point in reading them otherwise.
