TOP prompt - Novels




S O L D O U T!
DUE TO DIMINISHED RESPONSIBILITY

The bookstore owner blamed the publisher
The publisher blamed the agency
The agency blamed the author
The author just blamed himself
Who could blame the reader
For his urgency?
Needs that cover
On his shelf
Fiction?
Fact!

    greyscale territory; Pass the buck, sure. Who's passing the BOOK?
    tumblewords; Good to see it works for you
    paisley; Only the author will take the 'blame' - for his own popularity
    linda jacobs; You must have been in a situation where you can't even buy what you're after. Frustrating isn't it? And the excuses!
    pauline; And true to life as well
    sweettalkingguy; I blamed the bookstore; but not until I'd walked out with two 'best sellers' I'd never heard of!
    gautami tripathy; It applies to a whole lot more than just books
