*****************************WARNING***************************
This website is entirely counterproductive for anyone serious about getting published and making money out of books. The opinions of other users on here though sweet and well-meaning, matter about as much as a vote for Al Gore in the 2000 US election.

Publishing (books and music) is in the toilet because 99.9% of agents only really care about making money. Not to mention what Amazon is up to with reselling used e-books and not sharing any further royalties with authors. Somethings got to give and it will but for now be aware. Try to connect with agents and publishers to find out what they can sell and deliver it to them.

Otherwise just blog.

If you're in writing for the love and appreciation you never got from your father or mother STOP NOW. Go and see a therapist instead. If you can't afford a therapist phone the Samaritans.

Praise for Rude Awakening:
“Definitely not for the faint hearted!!……Hunter S. Thompson channels Ron Jeremy in this pornographic Odyssey of ballistic prose, assaulting the norms of fiction and blending amazing story telling with hilarious hard hitting ejaculations of literary originality! Mr Dale refreshes with an unapologetic tale of modern hedonistic/masochistic corporate cubicle love/hate reverse fairy tale adventure interspersed with astute psychological observation….my read of the year!”

Rude Awakening

By Michael Dale. Edited by Cla....

Warning: this book is pure poison. Laugh yourself sick! www.bookblurb.co.za


TODAY, is like any other mind-numbingly boring, soul-destroying day at the office. That is except for Pamela Hoare, Charlie Cockburn and that weird junior accountant no-one has noticed before.
TODAY, slutty secretary, Pamela Hoare, is about to put the finishing touches to her plan to blackmail her sexually repressed boss, Mr Patel, and make him her bitch.
TODAY, Charlie Cockburn, coked-up, hung-over and horny as hell realizes just how close he is to losing his job and decides to tell Mr Patel to stick it up his arse.
AND THEN there is that junior accountant - just so you know, his name is Lucas Swink - today, he will blow up a window and leap out the office block in attempt to awaken the masses.
Hoare, Cockburn and Swink are just some of the fucked-up, desperate souls you'll follow in this breakthrough novel that takes an unflinching look at London's cubicle driven society. Let Rude Awakening scratch away the shit-stained window of your perceptions and show you that everyone, from high-rolling businessmen to desperate barmaids, wants something more but doesn't know how to get it.
WILL SWINK BE THE ONE TO SHOW THEM HOW?
