Detroit Strip Clubs: 2 b or not 2 b
April 2, 2010 at 4:48 am | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsThe form naturally moved to Twitter, which provides a seamless link between SMS and blogging, where many novels are unravelling now.
“Fuel Dump” is a novel by comedy writer Tom Scharpling, contributing author of spoof news site The Onion.
It’s a work in progress, and one different from writing a book, as Scharpling explains in an interview with The Village Voice. He said: “You have to realise, there’s not even sentences in this thing. They’re like, each sentence is like a paragraph, or a page’s worth of action in any other book because that’s how you have to write it on this thing or it would be the most boring thing you’ve ever read.
