It has arrived! Recommended by Mr Dietrich, (round of applause!) I shall commence reading and let y’all know what I think…
I didn’t get very far into this book. I became skeptical when I read the list of past publications Mr. Burke has written, and there has been a lot. I bring this up because I believe that writing for content, not quality, creates what I like to refer to as a cookie cutter book. Definition of cookie cutter book by Danyelle’s Cozy Corner. Com states these stories are all very similar in plot and there is little originality in the writing. As though the authors are on a deadline and need to create x-amount of content in an allotted time which in turn creates loss of creativity.
Anyway, the writing is good and I can appreciate the idea.
However, someone was nicknamed Sperm-O.
I just couldn’t.
