Re: Need Essays For Atheist Book!

The title as it stands will appear offensive to any potential publisher - as you will already have gleaned if you have the intelligence to put this together, from the reactions here, though personally I don't give a fuck (yes I can still do that despite being 60 btw). 'Grey hair' indeed. You might ...

Re: Need Essays For Atheist Book!

DEADLINE OF SUBMISSION INFO: Quite a few people have been asking me about a deadline for getting their essay in for the book. There's no real rush currently as I'm finishing up my MSc project from now until November, so I might put the deadline around the end of January of 2012. So let's say Jan 31s...

Re: Need Essays For Atheist Book!

I'm only young if compared to Pensioner, so I guess I'm out of the running. :sigh: Anyone 40 years or younger, as long as they don't have grey hairs haha, is more than welcome to write and essay in application for the book. I can't promise it will get in, but if you write well and have a killer sto...

Re: Need Essays For Atheist Book!

I'm going to put together a proposal tonight and will post it somewhere so that people may read it before deciding whether or not to contribute.

Re: Need Essays For Atheist Book!

Yeah definitely mate, and as I said I'm not doing this for money at all. I don't really care if it makes a profit or not. I'm more interested in the work itself and getting it out there and available to anyone who wants to read it.

Re: Need Essays For Atheist Book!

Who will own the intellectual property? How will proceeds be shared? You have made this request of a group of towering and powerful intellects. Most of us, (the non-communists), don't give away our creative jools for free. I'm going to speak to a publisher in the near future about these sorts of th...

Hmm. I'd be interested in contributing to this. I'm certainly feeling very opinionated lately. ;) And I always was good at essays. Please do :D.
