You've walked into a bookstore (your choice as to whether it's one of those supermarkets of intellectual pursuits or a more intimate bookstore that actually seems to know something about the the tomes on the shelving).
Sitting right there in front of you, practically begging to be picked up and bought, is a new issue of "Slashes of the Pen."
Tell us a little about the book jacket? What's the back page got on it? How about the first paragraph of this little work?
Go ahead, tell us about the writing under that title, "Slashes of the Pen." Is it fiction, poetry, non-fiction? Hardback, paperback, or something else?
If you want to, go ahead and write a poem/short story/flash of fictions under that title.
Write!
