In addition, in many cases a small appropriate award or a mini-history. It goes around several times read: people who want to impress a publisher for her work, but also little known artists and authors to emerge successful. I liked the selection of very good and the stories made me laugh more than once. And now when I leaf through it again to set a good example, I could immediately read the whole book.
following scene in which a writer sits at her publisher in the office, I particularly liked:
