I looked in vain(glory) for a 'contact us' tab. Is it possible to submit a book for review? <BR/>Here are a couple of author reviews from the Gather.com first Chapter contest -<BR/><BR/>'What a fantastic read! You seemed to have spent a lot of time on this, picking each word and moment one at a time until near perfection was accomplished. If the rest of this is as good I can't imagine a publisher not grabbing this. This is not me kissing butt for a rating on for my chapter (because you already rated mine)--and by the way, what an honor to receive such feedback from such a talented author. Hell, it's better than mine. Sincerely, Thomas A Wills Sr.<BR/>Fugue State by Tomfilmz<BR/>P.S. Please tell me you've been working on this for ten years or more, obviously not a 1st or 2ndDear Fellow LH: You have my 10. I am in awe.<BR/><BR/>"I write sparsely, choosing each word carefully. You flourish words, choosing every one precisely. I did not find a sentence that failed to charm me. So many use so many words when they cannot find one. You use just enough and make me wish there were more. At times I stopped following your story to just follow your prose. There were several great writers who came to mind in reading your work, but I dare not mention one of them for fear Gather will learn you've entered this competition incognito. I will be shocked if your skills at this craft do not land you in the semi-finals. Best of Luck.<BR/><BR/>MURDER IN MYKONOS<BR/>JEFFREY SIGER, Dec 6, 2007, 3:45pm EST draft.
