Talking Heads
Dear Publisher,
Thanks for using Amazon KDP! We look forward to bringing your titles to the Kindle store. Copyright is important to us; we want to make sure that no author or other copyright holder has their books claimed and sold by anyone else.
1. State that you are the author of this title — please provide an explanation.
Seriously?
No, I mean, really?
Congratulations! The title(s) you recently submitted has been reviewed and successfully published to the Kindle Store.
As the song referenced in the title, goes?
“It’s always show time, here at the edge of the stage.”
An explanation? Like maybe I’m the reincarnation of a Russian peasant, having been formerly an incarnation of Shakespeare, and I’m presently engaged in spirit writing. Would that be sufficien explanation?
How about, instead, something like a Giant Talking Head pursued me into the night until I sat down and wrote my book that I had been thinking about for ages but procrastinated in writing down.
Or the Great Spirit infused my being with light and lo and behold the words were engraved in stone upon my awakening.
What kind of explanation did they want? What did you tell them? Something much more mundane, one would hope.
