I'll post a gross, grim or grisly fact each day on twitter (follow @annerooney to see them) and then there will be a contest for the most yukky human fact posted as a comment here or with the tag #grimgrossgrisly on twitter. Not sure how many prizes yet - depends how many I can prise (ho ho) out of the lovely publishers. If you can't wait that long, it's £6.99 from Barrington Stoke (or Amazon, Foyles, Waterstones, of course).
This blog started as a guide to publishing and if you look through the old stuff there's plenty of advice that is still useful. Now it's more random ruminations and pointless pontificating around publishing

Grim, Gross and Grisly

Is this how you know that cockroaches don't vomit but eels do? For which info I was very grateful. And BArrington Stoke are a lovely publisher. Well done and hooray!
ReplyDeleteThank you! But no - this one is all about humans. The eel/cockroach vomit research was from an older title, 1001 Horrible Facts (Arcturus, about 2006 or so).
