hi all

well, it's been a year in the making, but our collaborative effort, 'pop fiction: stories inspired by songs' is finally complete and due out before the end of the year.

for anyone who never saw / gave up on this longest of threads, 'pop fiction' is the result of nine ywo writers' efforts to create fiction inspired by music.

ywo has been pivotal to this project, as tom singleton (antcity) started off the whole process on this thread a year ago. we are now pleased to announce that the hard work has been done, and the collection of 18 stories is in the process of being published.

more news nearer the time, but it would be fantastic to drum up as much interest in the anthology as possible, especially as all proceeds will go to www.bluelamp-foundation.org. we'l announce on ywo once copies are available.

authors include: karen snape-williams, tom singleton, daniel lewis, marc nash, jacky cowper, lee williams, lev parikian, carole pitt and ais.

Poptastic! Well done guys. I expect you'll be putting together a second volume soon.
Good luck with it, hope it does well for you.
