Horns and Halos
Horns and Halos Horns and Halos is a fascinating, unexpectedly tragic story about one man's downfall in the brutal world of perception-driven media and politics. In the late 1990s, author James Hatfield wrote Fortunate Son, a biography of then-candidate George W. Bush that alleged, among other things, that the future president used cocaine during the '70s. St. Martin's Press fast-tracked the project, but recalled the book when Hatfield's earlier prison time for murder conspiracy became known. Horns and Halos follows what happened next: Fortunate Son was picked up by tiny Soft Skull Press, run by a passionate, Mohawk-topped young man named Sander Hicks, but the long, uphill battle to restore credibility to the work proves ruinous. The film is notable for access to the anxiety and roller-coaster emotions of Hatfield and Hicks, and there's plenty more despair in deleted scenes offered on this two-DVD set. Special features are especially important and useful here for added context, including raw footage of protests at Bush's inauguration, performances by Hicks and his band White Collar Crime, a profile of the film created by public television's KCET, and much else. --Tom Keogh

Open Question: Question about editing certificate?
I graduated from college about one full year ago, and despite landing many job interviews for entry-level editorial jobs I have not yet gotten a job. Right now I'm interning with a literary magazine and am going to enter the University of Chicago editing certificate program. My question is this: Does anyone know if an editing certificate program is helpful for landing jobs? I'm just not sure if the job outlook for editing/publishing jobs is so bad that maybe I should start training for a technical career of some sort. I'm putting a lot of hopes that I can get great training/a career network through this editing certification, but I'm just wondering if anyone here is really in-the-know about whether editing careers are even feasible right now. Thanks for any help you could give me! (more...)

Open Question: Is there a literary agent out there willing to take on a new author of fantasy?
I have five completed novels, the 6th nearly 80% finished, and I just need someone to help me get a foot in the door of the literary world. I'm looking for perhaps a new literary agent or someone in the publishing business who has a strong interest in fantasy and is willing to give a new author a chance. Please no stupid or mean answers, I'm completely serious and it's not nice to insult people's dreams. (more...)

Open Question: Are my extra curricular activities adequate for a good college with my GPA?
I'm currently a Junior and plan to apply to colleges such as University of Chicago, Emory, Duke, and Wake Forest. My GPA is low (3.67 unweighted, 4.5 weighted), so I'll probably have to rely on extra curriculars, etc. a little more. Please let me know your honest opinion; if it seems inadequate, I'll still have some time to improve.

Open Question: What does a Literary Agent do exactly?
My Editor has advised me to contact two Agents he used to work with but I want to know what a Literary Agent does? I know they contact the publishers for you, but how do they do it? Just through email or post or do they actually go and speak to them? What happens if after two or so years, the Agent cannot find a publisher, what happens then? If one Agent offers to help me publish my book, would there be a contract to sign? This is the first time I've tried to publish anything so I don't know that much about it. Thanks for the help.

Open Question: What happens to most books?
Here on Yahoo answers so many people say they are writing a book. Obviously not all of them will be published, and very few will ever get into the mainstream literary community. So what happens to these thousands of books that get written? (more...)

Voting Question: Is it impossible to publish your writing?
Okay, so I'm working on a book. I know about literary agents, and I know that it's hard to publish a book. But from what I've been reading, it sounds near impossible. I'm nervous, and I don't want to be turned down. Is it really hard to publish a book? And is it true that out of all the writers who attempt to publish their writing, only 2% make it? If you want, I can send you a sample of my writing to see my chances. :/ (more...)

Resolved Question: Can anyone help me find a publisher, or a literary agent?
I'm working on a tragedy, even though I'm still a minor. Can anyone give me a website or a name. Please no self-publishing. Thank you. (more...)
