We kick things off with some exciting publishing news! After that, we read 33 of the best entries in the Bulwer Lytton Fiction Contest, which is a contest dedicated to the worst opening sentences for novels that don’t exist. We also discuss the ideal bowel movement, but that’s at the very end.
#220: Books So Hard You Will Throw Them – Drunken Pen Writing Podcast
In today's cold open, we discuss some old/new publishing news as of the recording of the episode. After that, we discuss some of the most infamously difficult books in literature and why you should either read them or throw them over a mountain.
