Vaguest book title yet, and something coming soon

May 1st, 2007 by Dave

I think this is, indeed, the vaguest book title I’ve seen:

Amazon.com: Miscellaneous Studies; a series of essays: Books: Walter Pater

Worse yet, there’s no review material–even a blurb from the publisher–to give you an inkling of what the book is about.

Maybe I should call my next book “Words Arranged in a Coherent and Enlightening Pattern.”

Actually that might not be a bad title for a poem–it sounds like a Stereolab song title.

I’m actually working on a small project this week–the nonfiction version of a novella–that’s already got a title. And the best part is that I’m going to be offering it, exclusively on Die is Cast, for absolutely FREE.

What is it? Keep posted for details.
