Description

They say everyone has a book inside them; well Rick Bateman has a whole library bursting to get out. Told in amusing style, through letters, emails and diary entries, Rick quits his lucrative sales job to devote his daylight hours to writing The Great Novel. Literally bursting with ideas, he then begins penning his masterpieces of fiction on his new and expensively purchased laptop, personifying the phrase 'all the gear but no idea' and duly submitting his efforts to a raft of agents optimistic of success.
But as the weeks go by and the rejection letters start flooding in, Rick's bruised ego elicits increasingly vehement rants on everything from the publishing industry to the instant fame given to reality TV stars.
Following more and more random advice on how to get published, Rick begins to drastically ramp up the wow factor in his ideas which become ever more ridiculous (and increasingly plagiaristic).
Losing the plot asks the questions: Does persistence overcome resistance? How far would you go to achieve a dream? And how far is too far?
